WGIC and academia uncover the power of collaborative strategies to make geospatial workforce future-ready during “Geospatial Education and Market Needs” session at Geo Week 2023
Explore the latest insights and best practices for promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion in the geospatial industry from WGIC’s DEI session at Geo Week 2023.
WGIC identified policy gaps in relation to digital twin technology and presented policy considerations for the geospatial industry.
This rising interest, to determine environmental risk and financial materiality, coincides with improvements in satellite technology, geospatial tools and machine learning is spurring the development and interest in Geospatial ESG.
Following the increasing awareness of the potential of digital twin technology, the global market size of this technology is expected to grow substantially.
WGIC identifies guidelines and recommendations for the geospatial industry to continue to add value to the digital twin ecosystem.
The assessment of the digital twin technology development level allows a clearer understanding of the challenges, trends, and capability and capacity for its deployment. Reliable insights on this help to better understand the challenges of this new technology to address them effectively. In brief, these are the aspects of the current spatial digital twin assessment covered in the World Geospatial Industry Council’s (WGIC) recently released policy report.
Just like the physical world is interconnected and globalized, digital twins enabled by spatial components will be interconnected and integrated into the world. In a nutshell, this is the vision of spatial digital twins that the World Geospatial Industry Council (WGIC) envisages in its recent report.
Across the many DEI trends in the geospatial industry – a diverse workforce and a safe work environment are being focused on by WGIC Members.
A recent WGIC report Public-Private Geospatial Collaborations: Exploring Potential partnerships Models, examines the forces that are paving the way for the increased openness and adoption of public-private partnerships (PPPs) in the geospatial industry.
One of the key findings from a recently released report on Spatial Digital Twins by the World Geospatial Industry Council (WGIC) is that “the use of spatial data can unlock value and enable increased usability of almost all Digital Twins.”
WGIC spoke to Paloma Merodio, Vice President and Member of the Board of INEGI, who is also the Co-chair at UN-GGIM, who played a crucial role in publishing the SDGs Geospatial Roadmap.
