ORLANDO, FLORIDA, USA

Registration has opened!

The FIG Working Week will take place 28 May – 1 June 2023 in Orlando, USA. It is the first FIG Working Week in 20 years held in the Americas, and this conference will be one of the premier events within the surveying and geospatial profession in 2023. Do not miss out – register today.

FIG Working Week is an exciting week-long conference that brings the international community of surveying and spatial professionals together to discuss key challenges of our time within the surveying profession with fellow peers. The three conference days 29-31 May 2023 will be packed with a selection of technical sessions designed by the ten FIG Commissions and will cover all areas of surveying. With the theme Protecting our World, Conquering New Frontiers the conference will focus on the importance of looking ahead and discover what will be needed in the future for our profession and at the same time make sure to preserve what works well today.

The FIG Working Week 2023 will foster an environment that looks at the world we currently live in and help to create ideas and visions that use the SDG goals for detailing new strategies to align with our Working Week theme. The theme is intended to inspire surveying and geospatial professionals to seek to expand our presence through technology, experience, collaboration, and good will for a better tomorrow. As our world and climate changes around us, we aspire to leverage our knowledge base and tools for measuring, monitoring, and forecasting how to improve the outlook for our future generations.

Do you have a story to tell? The FIG Working Week is an exceptional platform to discuss experiences, innovations, best practices, research and much more to support the shaping of the future. Please submit your abstract here: www.fig.net/fig2023/submission.htm. Deadline is 15 January 2023.
