Workshop on e-Volunteering to Address Environmental Challenges, Mapathon – Report

The ‘Workshop on e-Volunteering to Address Environmental Challenges - A Real-life Example with a Real-time Project, followed by 24hr Mapathon’ was held on June 24th, 2021, at the 2021 FIG Working Week. The workshop was a collaboration between Volunteer Community Surveyor Program (VCSP) and WG 3.6 Geospatial Next. The mapathon was designed to engage surveyors across generations, independently from their location, to e-Volunteer to undertake humanitarian surveying under challenging times. VCSP and WG 3.6 Geospatial Next partnered with Crowd2Map Tanzania, which does work using humanitarian surveying and HOT OSM mapping to help fight Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) to help girls to escape cuttings. The local rescue teams and civic services have been challenged with the unknown territories, why the main idea of the workshop was to provide contributions for mapping towns and villages in the region to provide geospatial information and guidance to the ground teams. The workshop provided confidence to their participants mapping skills and positive feedback was given with the partnership with Crowd2Map, as it added a ‘why’ that made the mapping more meaningful to those involved in the mapathon.

Article: Key Global and Technology Drivers Impacting Surveying >

February 2021

The article was published in GIM International. As the FIG commission chairs are near the halfway point in their terms, they reflect on the global and technological drivers influencing their work. This article describes the breadth of work across the FIG commissions as well as the common areas. The discussion is also informed by global reports such as the UN-GGIM’s Future Trends in Geospatial Information Management and the RICS Futures Report 2020. Enjoy the article


FIG Working (from home) Week 2020 - Proceedings

May 2020

During the conference days a range of articles highlighting the hot-topics, the ground breaking research, and the hidden gems in the proceedings was published.

One of the most impressive examples of how phenomena evolve over time and space is the spread of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Knowing in real time where a local outbreak occurs, how outbreaks evolve over time, how many people are affected at any given location is of utmost importance to take appropriate measures. As with many other applications, well-established spatial information management can help to provide the required spatial information in near real time.  Read the article.  


FIG Working Week 2020 has been cancelled

March 2020

It is with deep sadness and heavy hearts that we announce the cancellation of this year’s FIG Working Week in Amsterdam due 10-14 May.

This is not a decision we have taken lightly and there are two overriding concerns that have caused us to make this decision at this time. 

First, the Dutch Government announced new measurements to control the COVID-19 outbreak. In the Netherlands all gatherings are prohibited until 1 June.

Second, our primary concern is always the wellbeing of you, and we would not take on the responsibility, during these times, to bring so many surveyors from all over the world together.
