Geoinformatics Events
Location matters! Salzburg is a premium city for conferences and events. Our philosophy is to be ‘green and smart’ about the events that we organise. We focus on the detail to ensure that we deliver events that offer excellent atmosphere, learning and networking opportunities to our communities.
AGIT
Every year in July, Z_GIS organizes the AGIT. Formerly known as GI_Salzburg & GI_Forum, two successful Geoinformatic conferences with a 30+-year history, AGIT will continue to be known as the meeting place for Geoinformatics communities and thus as a hub for professional exchange, further education, innovation and quite simply, as a creative milieu.
More interactive, more focused and more space for dialogues: since October 2021, the English-language GI_Forum and the German-language AGIT have been merged under the new brand “GI_Salzburg”. Many things will be new, the tried and tested will remain. The largest Geoinformatics conference returns with a new concept, fresh branding and compact formats.
- Unique combination of scientific symposium and EXPO
- Time & space for networking and discussions
- Continuing education in workshops and thematic focus topics
- Program offer especially designed for young scientists
- GI_Forum Journal and AGIT Journal as open access publication
We look back on more than 30 years of experience and with our forum we make an important contribution to the development of Geoinformatics, GeoIT and GI_Science. It is the annual meeting place for innovation, networking and continuing education. Interdisciplinary discussions, forward-looking ideas and a personal atmosphere accompany and shape the exchange of science, business and administration. The EXPO rounds off the event as a practical forum for applied Geoinformatics: the range of exhibits covers all application areas of Geoinformatics and its fields of innovation. Exhibitor presentations, practical workshops and the conference program accompany the offers of the exhibiting companies.
GIS Day
Regular events for students, innovators and the general public are organised at the iDEAS:lab, and a special annual highlight is GIS Day – as a national contribution to the worldwide GIS Day initiative.
We also contribute to conferences, workshops and summer schools at other locations, and increasingly in virtual space, currently e.g. GIS in Central Asia – GISCA
We are also happy to refer to events organised by partners such as AGEO.
