For 2025, the annual Locate conference will be held in conjunction with the FIG Working Week 2025 conference, with both taking place alongside each other at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre, from 6 to 10 April.
Locate25 and FIG Working Week 2025 will offer unparalleled access to the international surveying and geospatial community, providing a platform to exchange experiences and stay at the forefront of developments across various aspects of surveying and geospatial practices, including ethics, standards, and education.
The overall theme for the 2025 event is ‘Collaboration, Innovation and Resilience: Championing a Digital Generation.’ It will feature an insightful and technical program with local and international practitioners, allied professionals and academics speaking on their field of expertise.
Held every three years, the European Space Agency (ESA) Living Planet Symposium brings together diverse communities with a common interest in using Earth observation data, in a forum to meet and network with space professionals from a wide range of sectors.
Living Planet Symposium 2025 will have an emphasis on transitioning from ‘Observation to climate action and sustainability for Earth’.
The event will provide a forum to discuss the latest findings and applications based on satellite data, and to review the contribution that data and technologies have made and could further make in addressing environmental and societal challenges.
The symposium will also provide a chance for showcasing innovative products, services, missions and initiatives, with the overarching goal of demonstrating how science, society, policy-making, businesses and the economy can all benefit from observations made from space.
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
