Cultural landscape mapping

Visualise the interconnections between land, water, and culture using high-resolution geospatial data.

Our platform enables Traditional Owners to map and visualise the deep relationships between land, water, and culture. Using drone imagery, LiDAR, and hyperspectral technology, communities can capture detailed terrain data that reflects the interconnected nature of Country. These digital models help identify patterns of cultural and ecological significance, guiding sustainable land use and conservation efforts.

Impact assessment & planning

Integrate cultural data into planning to assess impacts and guide responsible land use decisions.

With BunjilView, cultural data can be integrated directly into land use and environmental planning. Overlaying heritage maps with proposed development or conservation areas helps assess potential impacts before work begins. This approach empowers Traditional Owners to make informed decisions, protect cultural values, and ensure projects align with community expectations and regulatory requirements.

Story & language preservation

Capture and map oral histories and traditional knowledge to strengthen cultural continuity.

Preserving cultural stories and language is vital to maintaining connection to Country. We support this by enabling the secure recording and mapping of oral histories, traditional knowledge, and language linked to place. Interactive story maps can be created to capture narratives in context, ensuring cultural knowledge remains strong and accessible for future generations.
