2023 webinar series 

So what does 2023 hold? Well, you have spoken and we have listened and next year we will focus our webinars on the key themes of telemetry, water quality and groundwater among others. We have planning some special events to specifically explore various application case studies within these themes.

The 2023 HydroTerra Webinar Series kicks off on Friday 20 January with a fascinating look at how Zoos Victoria (first carbon neutral certified zoo) has successfully reduced its emissions by 70 percent over the past five years. Kiam Yoong, the zoos Sustainability Manager will provide insights on emissions reductions through resource efficiency, waste management and renewables while highlighting their benefits. Put the date in your diary now and keep an eye out for when registrations open.
