Geospatial World Forum (GWF) is a collaborative and interactive event that demonstrates the collective and shared vision of the global geospatial community.
This annual gathering brings together geospatial professionals and leaders representing national mapping agencies, private sector enterprises, multilateral and development organisations, scientific and academic institutions, and large end-users from government agencies and private businesses.
Geospatial World Forum 2026’s theme will be Sovereignty, Economy & Society, and the event is expected to attract:
- 50-plus partners
- 75-plus exhibitors
- 2,000-plus attendees from 100-plus countries
- 500-plus speakers
- Representatives from 1,000-plus organisations
For 2026, GWF returns to the location of its first iteration, the RAI Congress Centre in Amsterdam.
The International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing’s (ISPRS) XXV Congress will be held in Toronto, Canada, from 4 to 11 July 2026. This will be the first ISPRS Congress to held in Canada since the event in Ottawa in 1972, so it will be an historic occasion.
The event will bring together researchers, practitioners and industry leaders from around the globe to explore the latest advancements, trends and applications in photogrammetry and remote sensing.
The theme of the Congress, From Imagery to Understanding, captures the role of ISPRS and its scientific activities, and will culminate in a legacy project to create materials that can be used by the ISPRS community to better promote to funding agencies and others the important role that it plays in the world’s economic and environmental activities.
The Congress will run in parallel with the 47th Canadian Symposium on Remote Sensing (CSRS).
The abstract submission deadline has been extended to 17 November 2025, and early bird registration is now available.
BIM World COPENHAGEN will be held in Copenhagen, Denmark, from 16 to 17 September 2026, bringing together a wide range of experts from across the fields of digitalisation in construction, real estate and urban development. This includes surveyors, mappers, architects, engineers, contractors, building owners and consultants.
Billing itself as ‘Fuelling the future of the building industry with data and digitalization’, the event will tackle the transformation facing the construction industry, including the pressure to reduce emissions, cut waste and design for circularity, by zooming in on data as the essential link between the green and digital transitions.
