Geospatial Knowledge Infrastructure (GKI) Trainings

Overview

GKI Training programs are meticulously designed to equip stakeholders from government bodies, national mapping agencies, the geospatial industry, academia, and the private sector with the expertise needed to build adaptive, resilient, and inclusive geospatial infrastructures that support sustainable, innovative, and competitive economies. These programs address key questions regarding the growth trajectory of geospatial knowledge and examine how modern technology ecosystems—such as AI, Big Data Analytics, Cloud Computing, and Digital Twin—are transforming various user segments. The training emphasizes the critical shift from data to actionable knowledge, aiming to enhance the data management capabilities of National Mapping Agencies by deepening their understanding of geospatial infrastructure, promoting data sharing and interoperability, improving efficiency, enabling better decision-making, fostering collaboration, and preparing them to adapt to emerging technologies.
