Data to Decisions: Advancing the Roadmap for Trusted Geospatial Data
Wednesday, 24 February, 3:30 to 4:30 PM MT
Grand Ballroom F, H, J
As AI transforms how geospatial data is produced and used, what makes it reliable enough to act on? Drawing on WGIC’s Data to Decisions: Rebuilding Trust in Decision-Grade Geospatial Data report, this panel will explore the foundations of trust, from provenance and metadata to governance and accountability.
Panelists will discuss priority recommendations, implementation challenges and opportunities for industry collaboration, contributing perspectives to help advance the report’s roadmap.
A Year of WGIC’s Policy Scan: Tracking Change, Informing Action
Thursday, 25 February, 10:30 to 11:30 AM MT
Grand Ballroom F, H, J
How can geospatial businesses keep pace with policy change and use that knowledge to inform their decisions? Reflecting on the first year of WGIC’s quarterly Policy Scan, this panel will examine key developments and their implications for operations, innovation and market opportunities.
The discussion will explore how the Scan can support business planning and policy engagement, identify emerging priorities and invite feedback on making the publication more useful to industry stakeholders.
