FIG International Congress 2010
11-16 April 2010 - Sydney, Australia
The overall theme of the International Federation of Surveyors (FIG) 2010 conference is "Facing the Challenges - Building the Capacity". This theme is particularly relevant to today's world. We are now faced with a global economic crisis of immense proportions, and living in a world undergoing dramatic climate change whose consequences are unknown and, thus far, unpredictable.
Never before has the need to Face the Challenge - the challenge to share ideas and resources; to cooperate between nations, between generations and between disciplines - been more urgent.
The four plenary sessions address the key issues from climate change, disaster risk management and good land governance to spatially enabled society and technological futures such as positioning infrastructures and information mobility. The technical programme will include a broad professional and scientific programme with 10 slots each offering from 8 up to 10 parallel sessions and workshop. With 4 poster session slots over four days the programme will offer up to 600 presentations.
For more information and registration see the FIG 2010 website.
