GEO-12: Dates and Sponsors Announced



“We have  now entered our fifteenth year of organising geospatial trade exhibitions and we  expect GEO-12 to build on our past successes and experience,” commented Stephen  Booth of PV Publications, organisers of the event and
publishers of Geomatics  World, GIS Professional and Engineering Surveying Showcase. “Last year’s event  bucked industry trends by maintaining visitor numbers at a level achieved in  2010 and 2009, while other events reported a
marked downturn in  attendance.”

“Having only just opened visitor registration we  already have around a third of our target signed up – many of whom have  previously attended. We have also signed up record numbers of exhibitors  including Platinum Sponsors Opti-cal and Korec who are sponsoring the Gala  Evening and drinks reception,”
continued Booth.

The GEO events are  designed for everyone involved in the capture and application of geospatial  information for construction, civil engineering, development, local / national  government agencies, professional survey practice
and consultancy. Attracting  exhibitors demonstrating the latest technology and developments in the fields of  Geographical Information Systems (GIS), Satellite Positioning and Navigation  systems (GNSS), laser scanning, data modelling and analysis and mapping together  with leading trade organisations and academic institutions, this year’s GEO  event is a ‘must attend’.

Attendance at GEO-12 is completely free  of charged and includes free parking, free onsite refreshments and free entry to  a full two-day programme of stimulating seminars and debates. Themes for 2012  include the hot topic of
Building Information Management (BIM), ‘Managing  Change: opportunities and threats’, a ‘Point Cloud Clinic’ as well as many other  topics, streams and speakers. In addition, those wishing to extend their stay  can complement
their experience with a ticket for the event’s Gala Dinner,  topping the evening off with a great deal on overnight  accommodation.
