Map walk and discussion at The Granites

A map walk and mapping discussion will be held on Day 2, Sunday 20 April, on the event map straight after competition ends.

Neil will discuss examples of mapping granite at Mount Egbert and the work flow he follows to make his maps. We can also discuss his gold mining mapping from the previous day. There will also be time for a chat under the trees about Australia’s input into the proposed ISOM 2030. Fredrik will also give us an update on the machinations of the IOF Mapping Commission. Exact time to be determined, but as soon as the main competition is completed. We’ll assemble at the registration tent. Depending on the level of interest (and questions), we are probably looking at a duration of about 2 hours

We’re also assuming Central Victoria turns on a beautiful Autumn day!

Contact Noel Schoknecht if you would like further information.
