Virtual High-Level Forum Events
The Virtual High-level Forum Events on United Nations Global Geospatial Information Management were successfully convened and streamed virtually to an audience on all five continents. This series of three virtual events were held on 26 May, 2 June and 9 June 2020, each event last just over three hours. These events were jointly organized by 蘑菇视频 Statistics Division, as Secretariat for the United Nations Committee of Experts on Global Geospatial Information Management (蘑菇视频-GGIM), and (United Kingdom) of Great Britain.
The three events addressed the geospatial landscape, that included strategic overviews of the United Nations Integrated Geospatial Information Framework and the Future Trends in Geospatial Information Management: Five to Ten-year Vision; the Integrated Geospatial Information Framework, with its nine strategic pathways for articulating and demonstrating national leadership in geospatial information, and with country-level action plans, the capacity to take positive steps; and the third edition of 蘑菇视频-GGIM Future Trends in Geospatial Information Management that provides expert views and strategic insight on the mid to long term-developments and emerging trend in geospatial information including the role of government.
These events also witnessed the launch of the Implementation Guide of the Integrated Geospatial Information Framework and the Future Trends in Geospatial Information Management: Five to Ten-year Vision third edition, both of which are presently undergoing broad global consultation and review processes. Both the Implementation Guide and the Future Trends report are of significant relevance to our global geospatial community.
