Whitsunday Regional Council, covering nearly 30,000 kilometres, faced significant connectivity challenges, especially in remote areas. The council's jurisdiction stretches from Airlie Beach to Bowen, Collinsville, and further into the mining regions. The need for a robust communication system was paramount to support work crews operating across this vast area.

Whitsunday Regional Council partnered with Airbridge Networks and Vocus to implement Starlink satellite technology. This collaboration provided 50 Starlink units for vehicle fleets and 20 fixed services for critical locations such as airports, jetties, and animal welfare centres.

Ensuring safe and resilient operations has become critical for mining organisations which need to meet strict compliance requirements and maintain their social license to operate. Vocus Satellite – Starlink helps bring mining organisations into the future—providing robust connectivity and services to facilitate crucial innovation, drive efficiency and support enhanced decision-making.
