" summary

Concrete claims: Spatial Sciences Institute reabsorbs surveyors in 2009; ArcPad exists for about ten years (ArcPad (MapTel, Melbourne)); GML 3.0 advancement names Simon Cox (Perth) as a key driver; ERmapper set desktop image-analysis benchmarks; and a deployed hazard monitor, NGWatch real-time CEP, runs on power-line networks in Australia, Canada and the USA.
