Geo9 was founded by Maya Sydney in 2009 working in association with ace Australian exploration geologists. From the get-go, Geo9 delivered advanced subsurface mapping services using innovative technology. With her early team, Maya generated hundreds of groundwater-related projects in agriculture, mining and environmental management. In the 10 years of active work the team conducted world-firsts in dam seepage mapping, geotechnical studies and in contamination mapping including a landmark demonstration project for the Chinese Academy of Environmental Planning. In 2017, Maya was personally engaged by the German Research Centre for Geosciences to help the commercial launch of advanced hyperspectral minerals mapping technology and water level monitoring at scale using continuous satellite gravity data. In 2020 with a European-based team, the company conducted a multi-stakeholder water management project for three northern States in Nigeria. Maya has also helped innovators launch new environmental technologies. This started in 2015 with new engineering solutions to mitigate impacts of coal seam gas development, and has grown to incorporate emerging new approaches to treat water, transform tailings, generate energy and create advanced materials.
