The International Workshop on Climate Change, GeoAI and Urban Health / Shanghai, China
This workshop is organized by the Healthy City Academic Committee of the Chinese Society for Urban Studies, the Healthy Geography Committee of the Geographical Society of China, and the International Geospatial Health Research Network. It is hosted by the College of Architecture and Urban Planning, Tongji University, and co- hosted by the Institute for Space and Earth Information Science, the Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the Center for Healthy City Planning and Governance, Shanghai Tongji Urban Planning and Design Institute Co., Ltd. In the face of escalating climate change impacts, it has become increasingly vital to explore innovative solutions that harness the power of technology. GeoAI, the fusion of geographic information systems (GIS) and artificial intelligence (AI), stands at the forefront of these innovations. This workshop is designed to delve into how GeoAI can be leveraged to address climate challenges and enhance urban health, fostering a sustainable and resilient future for our cities.

Esri Federal GIS Conference / Boston, U.S.A
This conference aims to bring together GIScientists with expertise and interests in AI, to examine the current conditions, opportunities, and connections between Artificial Intelligence and Geographic Information Science. Topics may include GeoAI, spatial data science, scripting and workflows, high-performance computing, replicability, predictive modeling, real-time analysis, and big data, among others.
March 24-28, 2025
2025 AAG Annual Meeting / Detroit, U.S.A
AAG’s return to Detroit (the first since 1985) offers a critical moment to pause and reflect: How can geographers contribute to making spaces of possibility, spaces that allow for imagining and enacting more equitable worlds, that are tuned into local and global processes, and respect and validate the experiences of diverse residents, advocates, and activists? To make spaces of possibility is to leverage geographic insight, knowledge, and tools to counter the historical legacies of racial exclusion and (settler) colonialism, to address current challenges to democracy and the environment, and to work toward climate justice. AAG invites abstracts, panels, posters, and discussions that address these issues. We encourage presentations that are inspired by, but not limited to the issues and lessons of Detroit and its region.
April 22-25, 2025
GEOSPATIAL WORLD FORUM / Madrid, Spain
Geospatial World Forum (GWF) is a collaborative and interactive platform that demonstrates the collective and shared vision of the global geospatial community. GWF is an annual gathering of geospatial professionals and leaders representing the entire ecosystem of public policies, national mapping agencies, private sector enterprises, multilateral and development organizations, scientific and academic institutions, and large end-users from government businesses and citizen services.
Best-known for its progressive themes, engaging content, top-level attendees, and valuable networking opportunities, the 16th edition of the Forum will be organized in Madrid, Spain.
