Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors Supports GEO-9

Designed to attract surveying practitioners to GEO-9, the UK’s only dedicated exhibition targeted at engineering, surveying, geomatics and GIS 
professionals, the seminar will take place on the afternoon of the 1st April 2009 at 
the Ricoh Arena, Coventry (UK) followed by a drinks reception and Gala Dinner.

Raising awareness of new technology, best practice and ideas, ‘Property: the 
changing paradigm’ will include sessions covering topical issues such as ‘Flood Risk and Insurance: it’s all about location and height’, ‘Neighbour 
Disputes, Boundaries and the Law – there’s now a better way’ and ‘Energy 
Performance Certificates: efficient and timely surveys’.

GEO-9 is set to build on the success of GEO-8, the first new exhibition for more than 15 years targeted at engineering, surveying, geomatics and GIS 
professionals which drew support from more than 40 leading suppliers of 
geospatial products and services. A winning combination of commercial exhibition, show
floor seminars and a range of social networking opportunities attracted more
than 850 high quality visitors to the event and the organisers of GEO-9 are 
hoping to build on this success for the 2009 event.

GEO-9 will also co-host the m3 Conference. Focusing on the 3m’s of geospatial information - measuring, modelling, managing - the conference theme “When 
every penny has to count: cost effective geo-solutions for challenging time” reflects the changing times the industry has to respond to and the conference 
programme will be published soon. GEO-9 will take place on the 1st and 2nd of April 2009 at the Ricoh Arena, 
Coventry (UK). Occupying more than 40 acres close to the M6 motorway, the Arena 
is centrally located and easy to access.
