The tech on display will include 3D visualization; aerial mapping; BIM; GIS/GNSS; laser scanning and Lidar; machine learning and AI; mobile mapping; photogrammetry; point clouds; reality capture; remote sensing; robotics and automation; Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM); UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle)/Drones; Visualization; augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR); and more. 

Among the leading equipment manufacturers, software companies and service providers that have been confirmed to exhibit are Coptrz, Esri UK, FARO Technologies, Flai Ai, JAVAD GNSS, NavVis, Radiodetection, RIEGL, Screening Eagle, SEP Geospatial, Spyrosoft, and Survey Max. Additional companies are being added to the list each week. 

The show is also supported by four leading organizations: the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS); Association for Geographic Information (AGI); The Survey Association (TSA) and Chartered Institution of Civil Engineering Surveyors (CICES).

Education programme 

As well as a central exhibition, the event will feature a CPD-accredited programme, offering over 120 sessions across seven theatres. Attendees can expect to be inspired and informed by a wide range of talks and panels, focusing on the key areas shaping geospatial. Further details will be announced soon.

Sessions will cover a range of different aspects of geospatial, including the built environment, infrastructure, transport, earth observation and satellite applications, drones, utilities and energy, surveying, and land and natural resource management.  

AISPECO, a manufacturer of advanced geospatial data collection, said: “GEO Business is much more ‘open’ as a conference since all of the sessions happen right on the exhibition floor. This dynamic setup creates excellent opportunities for engaging conversations.”

Feedback from last year’s GEO Business

Last year’s successful show brought the geospatial community from all parts of the world together, fostering collaboration and unlocking new opportunities for growth. 

Sorin Popa, a video producer and Point Cloud CAD, 3D BIM fly through creator at 90 Degree travelled all the way from Romania to attend. “GEO Business was an absolute blast, filled with innovation, networking, and a sense of belonging in the geospatial community. Attending was a game-changer for me,” says Popa. 

Cloud-based AI platform provider, Flai, echoed this: “It was a delight to connect with industry experts, learn new things, and expand our network. “The diversity in this field is truly inspiring and we had the opportunity to meet so many like-minded individuals! Great job, GEO Business. It was mind blowing!”
