WHY ATTEND

The FIG Congress is the foremost event in the field of surveying, geomatics and the related professions.

It serves as a global assembly, featuring elevated plenary sessions, technical site visits, and a rich cultural and social itinerary. Here, survying professionals, government officials, industry leaders, policymakers, scientists, and emerging professionals convene, engaging in constructive dialogues to encourage scientific and technical advancements in sustainable geomatics/surveying. This congress starts with the FIG General Assembly, alongside the FIG council and scientific and technical committee meetings.

FIG Congress 2026 offers a platform for the exchange of knowledge, ideas, techniques and technologies. By granting regional and local educators, practitioners, and researchers access to an international network, this conference and exhibition fosters opportunities for regional and local participants to establish novel business connections and research collaborations. This collaborative networking endeavour is poised to stimulate innovation, catalyse ideas, and set research agendas for years to come, and bolster the region’s economy.
