Description	This chapter provides an Australian perspective of the role of the professional body during the pandemic: from ensuring the continued availability of professional development events, advocating on behalf of Members and industry, and maintaining professional networking opportunities. The Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has created a public health emergency that has had a massive impact on society and economies worldwide. Members are faced with the fear of unemployment, having to come to grips with home schooling and social isolation, sifting through misinformation to stay on top of evolving pandemic-related policy and regulations, and confronting a new way of life where health concerns and the wellbeing of family are the highest priority. The Surveying and Spatial Sciences Institute (SSSI) is Australia's peak body representing the interests of surveying and spatial science professionals. SSSI combines the disciplines of land surveying, engineering and mining surveying, cartography, hydrography, remote sensing and spatial information science. Book Name: COVID-19 Pandemic, Geospatial Information, and Community Resilience
