Map Asia provides a platform for the Asian geo-informatics community to realise, recognise, and reveal the stages of dissemination of geospatial information. It is an international initiative aimed to allow the convergence, sharing and use of geospatial technologies. Founded in the year 2002, Map Asia is the largest annual international conference and exhibition on geospatial information, technology and applications in the region and offers a unique branding, networking and marketing opportunity to the local and international geospatial industry. International Symposium and Exhibition on Geoinformation is the premier educational event for professionals involved in geoinformation technologies including GIS, GPS, remote sensing, AM/FM, SCADA, and related geospatial technologies. The conference aims to attract geoinformation researchers to reflect the interdisciplinary breadth of geoinformation.
