Event Overview
Governments and public sector organisations have been increasingly challenged to deliver equitable, efficient, and data-driven services to diverse communities. From healthcare and transport to utilities and social services, understanding the where proved to be just as critical as the what and how.
The webinar, hosted in collaboration with the Public Sector Network, explored how Precisely Enrich and Precisely Location Intelligence enable agencies to make smarter, evidence-based decisions by layering rich contextual data onto existing datasets. The session highlighted practical applications of enrichment, including how proximity to services can be optimised to better support vulnerable populations.
Attendees heard from a representative of CARA (Centre for Australian Research into Access), an organisation using enriched data to improve accessibility and outcomes for Australians. CARA’s work demonstrated the impact location intelligence can have on inclusive policy, planning, and service delivery.
Key Themes:
The power of data enrichment in public sector decision-making
Real-world use cases: improving proximity to services and resource allocation
Location intelligence as a catalyst for equity and efficiency
Cross-sector applications across government, government business enterprises, and associated commercial entities in utilities, telecommunications, and health
Opportunities for collaboration and innovation across agencies
This session was designed for professionals in federal, state, and local government, government business enterprises, and adjacent industries. Leaders in roles such as Chief Data Officers, data strategists/scientists, policymakers, GIS specialists, and digital transformation leaders gained valuable insights into how enriched data can elevate decision-making and improve service outcomes.
