Following the success of PetroGIS in 2009, an event focused on the Oil & Gas sector, I am delighted to bring you our 2nd Annual GIS World event, designed to facilitate better interaction, discussion and collaboration amongst you and your peers on the issues that you have asked us to address across all industries.

After having researched with our past attendees and over 116 professionals, we have developed this year’s pan-industry programme, which will address these burning issues: lack of geospatial understanding, challenges with executive buy-in, data sharing policies, lack of funding, data maintenance and emergency management.
