An iconic historical location for envisioning the future
Wednesday 25th March 2026, At Trinity House, London, EC3N 4DH
GeoFutures is about how we see geospatial data visualization evolving over the next couple of decades and what we need to do in terms of data collection and systems design in order to make the most of the opportunities and challenges that present themselves.
The day is intended to be an interactive workshop with short vision statements, group discussions and a round up of views. We are recording contributions for the BCS YouTube channel and plan to complete a report to be published in the Cartographic Journal and online.
