In this episode of On Point with Korem, I sat down with Alan Smart. He’s the chairman of the Tasmanian Spatial Industry Council in Australia. We looked back a few years to a study that Alan was involved with sponsored by ACIL Tasman, a consulting firm, that attempted to value geospatial technology to a country’s individual gross domestic product (GDP). The results were absolutely fascinating because what was found was that between 0.6% and 1.2% of GDP was because of the productivity offered by geospatial technology.
