AGI - The UK Geospatial Membership Body


The Mission of the AGI is to maximise the use of geographic information (GI) for the benefit of the citizen, good governance and commerce.

Estimates of the size of the UK Geographic Information (GI) business currently vary by definition from over £900M to £1.23Bn. That said, GI underpins considerably more added value in the public, private, academic, commercial and consumer sectors. With over 2000 named members, individual and corporate, AGI is THE membership body for everyone with an interest or involvement with GI and has been active since 1989.

Now in its 22nd year, AGI is a member of the UK Location Council, an INSPIRE Spatial Data Interest Community (SDIC) and provides logistical and expert support to the British Standard's Committee for Geographic Information (IST36), amongst its many other activities. In this website you will find information about AGI's many Special Interest Groups (SIGs), Regional Groups, our busy events programme, Continuing Professional Development (CPD), plus our highly acclaimed annual AGI GeoCommunity conference, which is the largest independent geospatial event in the UK.

For the latest industry and AGI news, visit our regularly updated news pages. AGI Corporate and Sponsor members can publish news articles and press releases on the AGI website free of charge. For more information on this and other benefits of membership, please contact Maureen Nessling.
