GeoMundus Conference Archive

The 16th edition of the conference was held at the University of Münster, Münster, Germany. The approach of students organising a conference for students was quite unique. However, the participants included experts, researchers, professionals, policymakers, and the general public. Anyone who was curious or enthusiastic about geospatial technologies and their applications could participate in this conference. It was a fantastic opportunity to engage with this exciting and fast-growing field and to network with a diverse group of people at the cutting edge. As students and future members of the geospatial community, the organisers wanted to bring together a representative group of professionals to share their experience and critically discuss the role of geospatial technologies experts in the industry, academia, government, and NGO positions where students were most likely to develop a career. That year’s conference featured keynote speakers, workshops, paper and poster presentations, career development, and networking events. Past keynotes had included illustrious names from the Geospatial space, such as Dr. Michael Goodchild, Dr. Werner Kuhn, and John Nelson.
