The complexities of understanding and forecasting evolutionary processes necessitate geographic modelling and simulation, which have emerged as potent tools for addressing critical issues such as climate change and sustainable resource use. But there is a pressing need for an open geographical modelling and simulation framework. Such a framework would serve as a catalyst, attracting more scholars and encouraging their collective efforts to address geographic challenges.
This workshop is designed to explore pertinent theories, approaches and potential applications, while fostering communication among experts from diverse domains. Its primary objectives include stimulating extensive discussions regarding the potential directions of the field and promoting further research, thus paving the way for a promising future in collaborative geographic modelling and simulation.

The 2024 Western Australian Geospatial Conference will be a dive deep into the latest technologies, trends, and best practices shaping the geospatial sector in Australia. The conference will give professionals ranging from GIS specialists to remote sensing experts the chance to gain valuable insights and forge new partnerships.
The event will conclude with the 2024 Western Australian Geospatial Excellence Awards ceremony, which will celebrate achievements and innovations by individuals and organisations within Western Australia’s geospatial sector.
The 2024 Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial Conference (FOSS4G) will be held in Belém, Brazil, located in the heart of the Amazon.
FOSS4G, an annual event organised by the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) since 2006, is one of the largest global meetings on geospatial software of the year.
The local organising committee will be comprised of passionate Brazilians experienced in OSGeo technologies, along with the Geoinquietos Argentina team.
The Australian Local Government Association will host a national congress on roads and infrastructure from 3 to 4 December 2024, in Margaret River, Western Australia.
The congress is aimed at mayors, shire presidents, councillors, CEOs, general managers and local government engineers and works managers, and typically includes sessions on road funding, road safety and heavy vehicle access.
There is also usually a focus on community infrastructure, encompassing renewable energy deployment and integration, innovations in active transport, waste and recycling, affordable housing and resilient telecommunications.
The third International Association of Geodesy (IAG) Commission 4 Symposium will bring together scientists, researchers and professionals working in the broad field of positioning and its applications.
The symposium will serve as a platform for discussing research that leverages current and emerging positioning techniques and technologies. It aims to provide both practical and theoretical solutions across a wide range of topics.
Discussions will address both technical and institutional aspects of developing GNSS backup systems, integrated positioning solutions, resilient PNT systems, and emerging LEO-based PNT techniques. The symposium will also explore space weather monitoring and forecasting through both ground-based and space-based geodetic observations. Additionally, the application of machine learning and artificial intelligence in geodesy will be examined.
The main topics to be covered include:
- Multi-frequency and multi-constellation GNSS technique
- Terrestrial and satellite-based positioning system development
- Multi-sensor fusion navigation and integrity monitoring
- Emerging positioning technologies, e.g., resilient PNT and LEO-based PNT
- Atmospheric space weather monitoring using geodetic observation techniques
- Applications of geodesy to engineering
- Artificial Intelligence technique for geodesy research
The Open Geospatial Consortium’s (OGC) 132nd Member Meeting will be held from June 9 to 12, 2025, at the Holiday Inn Mérida in Mérida, Yucatán, Mexico.
The event will feature several tracks on a variety of topics, especially innovation in geospatial interoperability.
The program will highlight how remote sensing technologies such as synthetic aperture radar, LiDAR and hyperspectral sensing are contributing to societal, economic, security, and disaster response scenarios.
The program will also explore how digital transformation is improving land administration and building information management.
INGEO 2025, the 9th International Conference on Engineering Surveying, continues the series of meetings that began in 1998.
The aim of the conference is to bring together professionals in the field of engineering surveying and other related professions, such as civil engineering, mechanical engineering, geoinformatics, geotechnics and so on, to discuss new technologies and development.
The main topics of discussion will be:
- 3D modelling of buildings and engineering structures, BIM
- Smart cities, data collection, sensors, ISs and IOT applications
- Cultural heritage documentation, data collection, 3D modelling
- Indoor navigation (SLAM, RFID, TOF, etc.), low-cost systems and applications
- Deformation measurement, automated measuring systems
- Industry surveys, application of modern technology for power plants, nuclear facilities, etc.,
- Standards and quality assurance of engineering surveys
