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.
The Free and Open Source Software for Geospatial (FOSS4G) conference series, hosted in partnership with OSGeo, brings together open source geospatial users, software developers, decision makers and researchers from around the world.
The FOSS4G 2025 conference in Auckland, New Zealand, will be a vibrant gathering that fosters collaboration and celebrates innovation in the exciting world of free and open source software for geospatial.
The event will feature workshops, technical sessions, keynote addresses, ‘lightning talks,’ code sprints and community events, social events and a ‘women in geospatial’ breakfast.
It is expected that the full program will be made available in August 2025.
