Dubai at Forefront of Utilising Geospatial Technologies

The XXIII ISPRS Congress is underway in Prague and witnessing the participation of a large number of photogrammetry, remote sensing and GIS enthusiasts from around the globe. Organised once every four years, the ISPRS Congress is an important event for members of the global geospatial community, and strengthens the bond between researchers, professionals and representatives of government and private organisations, thus ensuring much needed cooperation within the field.

Dubai Municipality has always been at the forefront of utilising and propagating the use of geospatial technologies for the enhanced functioning of various organisations in the Emirate of Dubai and across other countries in the Middle East. The Municipality also organises its annual conference known as GRASF (GIS and Remote Sensing Annual Scientific Forum), which is aimed at showcasing the extent of usage of geospatial technologies by various government and private sector organisations from across the Middle East region.

Taking this initiative one step forward and to ensure that its activities are spread on a global scale, Dubai Municipality has decided to participate as a sponsor and exhibitor at the XXIII ISPRS Congress in Prague. The participation is aimed not only at supporting ISPRS in its wonderful initiative but also at bringing forth to the world the extensive and highly impressive work being done by Dubai Municipality and other organisations in the region, in the field of geospatial science. A visit to the Dubai Municipality booth would be an opportunity to learn about some of the ongoing projects in the field of geospatial technologies as well as to experience traditional Middle Eastern hospitality. Dubai looks forward to welcoming you to booth number 69.
