Conference

We attended the Geospatial KL 2019 International Conference, which features the following three major conferences in one place:

• 6th International Conference Geomatics & Geospatial Technology
• 4th International Conference on Smart Data and Smart Cities
• 8th FIG Workshop on the Land Administration Domain Model (LADM).

This big event was held at the Hotel Istana in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia during the first three days of October 2019.

We are very pleased to have had this year’s 3D GeoInfo hosted in Singapore. The 14th edition of the conference, co-organised by the National University of Singapore and the Singapore Land Authority, was part of a broader event named 3D Singapore, which comprised also three pre-conference workshops: 2nd BIM/GIS Integration Workshop, Point Clouds Training, and Big Data and Urban Analytics Workshop. The 4-day event, endorsed by the ISPRS and hosted at the Asian Civilisations Museum, was attended by about 200 participants from academia, industry, and public organisations; and it was supported by 6 exhibitors: AAM, Bentley, Esri Singapore, GPS Lands, Oracle, and YJP Surveyors. It was a great pleasure to take part in hosting this event.

3D GeoInfo is the flagship conference of the international 3D city modelling community, with the 2018 edition held in Delft. This year we are quite fortunate to be able to host it in Singapore, together with the Singapore Land Authority, in the last week of September.

The ISPRS Geospatial Week 2019 was held in Enschede, the Netherlands. As part of the ISPRS WG IV/10 (Advanced Geospatial Applications for Smart Cities and Regions), we have been involved in the organisation of the ISPRS Workshop on Advanced Geospatial Applications for Smart Cities and Regions (SmartGeoApps 2019).
