AGI 3D Network

Investigating the current and future needs for 3D geospatial data across the UK

About the AGI 3D Network

Advancing the UK’s 3D Geospatial Data Landscape

The AGI 3D Network has been established to investigate current and emerging needs for 3D geospatial data across the UK.

With growing demand for richer spatial insights in both the public and private sectors, the AGI 3D Network aims to shape a coordinated and forward-thinking approach to 3D geospatial data.

The 3D Network core objectives:

  • Define Key 3D Geospatial Data Models – develop clear definitions and naming conventions for essential 3D geospatial data models
  • Identify Business Applications and Opportunities
  • Demonstrate Value and Return on Investment by provide evidence of the tangible benefits that 3D models deliver
  • Support a case for National 3D Data Strategy and contribute to shaping a vision for a national approach to 3D data capture and provision

Why it Matters

From smart cities to infrastructure planning, climate resilience to asset management 3D geospatial data is unlocking new possibilities. The AGI 3D Network will bring together thought leaders, technical experts, and stakeholders to ensure the UK remains at the forefront of 3D innovation.
