Optimum strategy and development for spatially enabled governments and utilities

Government use of Geospatial Information Systems is on the rise, though the full benefits of its use has not yet been seen. Without enabling government through GIS and real time data, development and planning of services, among other things, will not match that of the countries growth.

Spatially Enabled Government Southern Africa 2010 will bring together government’s key players within the geospatial arena. They will be providing you with insight into interoperability challenges, the future of GIS applications in government and web-based data systems.

Essential reasons to attend Spatially Enabled Government Southern Africa 2010:

  • Comparing the latest in international GIS standards to those of Southern Africa
  • Learning how to minimise costs and maximise efficiencies through data sharing
  • Hearing the latest on the drive for a national data warehouse
  • Taking home practical steps on overcoming interoperability challenges
  • Gaining insight on how government interfaces data sets across departments
  • Keeping up-to-date with government’s role in the geospatial community
  • Meeting the major players and choosing the right partner for future GIS projects

This year’s agenda was developed by you for the industry to provide insight into the many complex challenges that government faces in the use of GIS. Through the detailed presentations that you requested to unique government case studies and comprehensive workshops, this event will address your critical challenges and provide practical solutions for you to impliment in your department.
