Geo Week, February 10-12, 2025, is the premier event for increased integration between the built environment, advanced airborne/terrestrial technologies, and commercial 3D technologies. It was created as a response to the changing needs of built world and geospatial professionals, and to acknowledge the convergence of technology taking place currently. New technological innovations, the need for remote workflows, and hardware breakthroughs are redefining expectations across teams, organizations, and entire industries.
GeoIgnite is the premier brand for “Geo” leadership and Trade Show events in Canada. Organized and hosted by GoGeomatics we are the platform for sharing ideas, engaging the sector, business development and sustaining and growing the community. These events highlight the integration between the built environment, advanced airborne/terrestrial technologies, and commercial 3D technologies, surveying, earth observation, and mapping.
The GeoIgnite Career Fair is a pivotal recruitment opportunity for both public and private sectors, encompassing a spectrum of fields within the geospatial, construction, engineering, climate resiliency, and remote sensing industries. Public sector agencies focused on environmental management, urban planning, national defense, natural resource management, and climate resiliency initiatives, which all extensively utilize geospatial technologies, will find the event particularly advantageous. Similarly, private sector firms including GIS technology companies, remote sensing and lidar specialists, land surveying agencies, mapping services, construction, and engineering firms, and those specializing in Building Information Modeling (BIM) and reality capture technologies, are well-suited for this fair.
xyHt is an independent publication for geospatial professionals and businesses. Covering surveying, BIM, Lidar, UAS, location tech, and hydrography among other disciplines, xyHt is pioneering the unification of the geospatial professions.
The National Geomatics Competition (NGC) is a student-led consulting engineering competition in the field of geomatics. Our focus is to bring together students, academia and industry representatives from across the country.
The goals for the NGC are :
- Increase the visibility of the geomatics profession and of the respective programs in Canadian universities
- Connect industrial knowledge with students’ skills and academic research
- Learn and contribute to this fast-growing sector
The NGC hosts teams of undergraduate students from schools all across Canada. These teams are presented with a problem dealing with various aspects of geomatics, and must come up with a solution to the problem. The teams present their solutions in front of a panel of judges, consisting of industrial and academic experts in the industry. Social activities, technological demos and conferences on the most recent updates from the industry are scheduled throughout the weekend.
Between the Poles is a blog Geoff created to advocate issues of importance to the sector.
Founded in 2011, GoGeomatics is a Canadian-based social enterprise that focuses on geospatial information and technology. It was created with a mission to connect, inform and inspire professionals within the geomatics community, and has grown into Canada’s largest geomatics communications channel. With a focus on professional development, career opportunities, knowledge sharing and community building, we attract the largest audience of professionals looking for all things geo.
Hundreds of organizations look to us to post their job openings, news and events on GoGeomatics Canada. We have published over 2,200 Canadian geomatics articles in our online magazine and reach thousands on social media and through our weekly newsletter, The Canadian Spatial Times.
Each year, GoGeomatics hosts two major national events- GeoIgnite in Ottawa and the GoGeomatics Expo in Calgary. We are also home to popular webinars, numerous student-driven networking events and GeoIgnite Career Fairs.
The Lidar Commercial Annual Expo is a completely virtual B2B event matching reality capture lidar vendors with practicing 3D professionals from North America and beyond. The technology platform and format are based on Geolgnite, the highly successful Canadian geospatial conferences.
Canadian GIS & Geomatics is a network of websites and social media channels combined to help promote the Canadian Geospatial Industry to thousands of people since 2005, by providing a way where people can easily find, post and share information related to geomatics education, geospatial events, geo careers, open source data, mapping, software and many other Canadian geospatial related topics.
