Representing the interests of Northern Ireland geospatial community
AGI Northern Ireland (AGI NI) was officially launched in 2002 to help raise awareness of geographic information and to encourage data and knowledge sharing.
Over the years, our mission has developed to reflect the changing industry, society and environment around us by actively supporting a sustainable future for our geospatial community.
Since our formation, we have established strong partnerships with public and private sector organisations locally as well as further afield. Along with the support of our partners, AGI NI has representation on the AGI Council which helps steer the direction of the Association and the support it offers to Northern Ireland.
The current AGI NI Committee comprises 15 active members representing both the public and private sector who coordinate and organise events throughout the year. These events offer support for professionals, early career networking, continuing professional development and business related opportunities.
AGI NI hosts a yearly conference which brings together keynote speakers, presenters and offers an opportunity to display your geospatial work with the poster exhibition. This is Northern Ireland’s only GIS conference and gives the geospatial community a chance to network and reconnect. AGI NI issues an annual call for papers and everyone with an interest in GI is welcome to participate.
AGI NI hosts other events including a summer social event and also public seminars in collaboration with our network of partners (e.g. academic and private sector organisations). Our events showcase a wide range of interests including environmental sustainability, infrastructure development, future GI developments, healthcare and social developments through greenspaces and access to provisions.
Benefits of joining AGI NI and AGI include:
We recognise that our volunteer members and those with an interest in the geospatial industry have played a vital role in the success of AGI NI and we are looking to build upon this further.
