The Association for Geographic Information’s (AGI) Foresight Conference 2025 will be held in London on 13 November, at which will be launched the The Foresight Report 2030, the result of a 12-month project exploring the opportunities and challenges facing the geospatial sector over the next five years.
The conference agenda features an keynote presentation from Ed Parsons, Geospatial Technology Advisor and Google’s first ever Geospatial Technologist, who will be joined by representatives from Amentum, AtkinsRéalis, Idox Geospatial, 1Spatial and the North Sea Transition Authority.
The innovative geospatial sector program also features opportunities to explore the themes of the Report — the Data Imperative, the AI Integration Challenge, Infrastructure Evolution, the Collaboration Imperative, Earth Systems Revolution, Skills Revolution, and the Convergence Effect.

The Association of Public Authority Surveyors (APAS) 2026 Conference will be held in the quaint but bustling Southern Tablelands town of Bowral.
The theme of the conference is ‘Now that’s a boundary!’, which references the fact that Bowral is where the famous cricketer Sir Donald Bradman grew up and also that it is home to the Bradman Museum & International Cricket Hall of Fame.
For those who have had abstracts accepted, the next deadlines are: Draft paper deadline: Friday, 14 November 2025; final paper deadline: Friday, 16 January 2026.
APAS is a non-profit organisation that brings together surveyors and closely allied spatial information professionals employed by public authorities in both New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory.
