Geelong Study Tour

Join ASCA and the City of Greater Geelong’s Smart City Team for an in-person study tour, workshop and networking event on the afternoon of Thursday, 15 June 2023.

The event will be broken into three parts, part one will be a walking tour around Greater Geelong, part two will be the focussed workshop and part three will be a relaxed networking event.

On the day:

The walking tour will give you the chance to visit some of the key locations where intelligent technologies and innovations are making a difference in Geelong. The Geelong Smart City team will offer their key learnings, insights and answers to your questions.

Geelong’s journey to becoming an innovative, future-focussed city formally began with the adoption of the Smart City Strategic Framework in 2021 and since then has received numerous awards and accolades including International Smart City of the Year at the World Smart City Expo in Korea.

The walking tour will be followed by a focussed workshop to explore and discuss the role of advanced CCTV and analytics in a Smart City, and the important privacy and ethical considerations this raises. This will involve case studies, live footage demonstrations and an interactive discussion including;

  • Challenges of implementation

  • Device management

  • CCTV, AI/Machine Learning and the art of the possible

  • Data, ethics, privacy and responsible AI

The afternoon will be completed with an optional networking event hosted by the City of Greater Geelong and ASCA where some light refreshments will be provided, and you will have the chance to connect with other smart city professionals.
