SUMMARY:Strategic Initiative: Webinar on Future Reference Frames
DESCRIPTION:A trusted geodetic reference is the invisible infrastructure of every modern society.\nBehind every map\, navigation system\, construction project\, and climate model lies a geodetic framework that ensures Europe speaks the same spatial language. \nThis webinar\, hosted in collaboration with the Norwegian Mapping Authority and EuroGeographics\, marked the beginning of a strategic dialogue on the future of Europe’s geodetic reference frameworks. \nAs the world moves toward ITRF and dynamic reference systems\, Europe faces a critical choice: how do we ensure long-term interoperability across borders and sectors? \nWhy this matters\nGeodesy is not just a technical discipline — it is the foundation of Europe’s digital infrastructure.\nFrom autonomous transport to smart cities and environmental monitoring\, every digital service that relies on location depends on a stable and trusted reference frame. \nIf Europe fails to act together\, the coherence and trustworthiness of its geospatial data could erode — weakening the digital backbone that connects economies\, governments\, and citizens. \nThis webinar explored how we can safeguard confidence in European geodata for the next 30 years. \nKeynote speaker\nWe were delighted to welcome Nicholas Brown\, Head of Office at the United Nations Global Geodetic Centre of Excellence.\n Nicholas brought deep insight from the global geodetic community and shared perspectives on how strategic collaboration can strengthen Europe’s leadership in this evolving landscape. \nA crossroads for Europe\nEurope now stands at a crossroads. Several pathways can shape how our geodetic reference frameworks evolve — from maintaining today’s static systems\, via introducing periodic updates\, to embracing fully dynamic\, time-aware references. \nEach pathway carries strategic implications. Stability offers continuity but risks falling behind a changing Earth. Periodic updates balance tradition and innovation\, while dynamic systems unlock new precision — yet demand shared governance\, investment\, and trust. \nThis webinar invited national mapping authorities\, policy leaders\, and experts to explore these options together — and to define a shared European vision for trusted geodata in a dynamic world. \nThe agenda is available here (24/11/2025) and you may find the presentations of this webinar as well as the video below. \n  \n\n\n\n1\n“The importance of understanding user requirements”\nNicholas Brown\, Head of Office\, United Nations Global Geodetic Centre of Excellence\n \n\n\n2\n“Three Paths to Europe’s Next Reference Frame”\nPer Erik Opseth\, Head\, Geodetic Institute\, Norwegian Mapping Authority\n \n\n\n3\n“Georeferencing in the Digital Era from the user’s perspective”\nIvar Oveland\, EuroSDR\n \n\n\n4\n“ETRS89 and dynamic reference systems in Europe” \nMartin Lidberg\, EUREF\n \n\n\n5\n“Why Geodetic Reference Frames Matter for AIM?”\nBoris Coric\, Eurocontrol\n \n\n\n\n  \nWebinar Recording (Opens in YouTube)

SUMMARY:Members Webinar Series - The Impact of OME2: What We’ve Accomplished
DESCRIPTION:The OME2 project\, co-funded by the European Union\, was launched in 2022 and is being delivered by a consortium comprising of EuroGeographics; National Geographic Institute\, Belgium; National Institute of Geographic and Forest Information\, France; Hellenic Cadastre; General Directorate for the Cadastre\, Spain; and Cadastre\, Land Registry and Mapping Agency\, The Netherlands.  The project will conclude in December\, marking three years of collaboration between the consortium and you\, our members. We invite you to join us online as we present the project’s technical achievements in terms of the high value large scale prototype and tool development\, share overall results and outline the next steps. This has been a significant and successful project for EuroGeographics and we look forward to you joining us on line. \nThe agenda is as follows: \n\nIntroduction & Welcome – Angela Baker\, EuroGeographics\nOME2 Technical Updates – Noémie Grémeaux\, IGN France and Tony Baving\, Kadaster Netherlands\nOME2 project outputs – Angela Baker\, EuroGeographics\nWhat’s next – Angela Baker\, EuroGeographics\nQ&A\n\nWebinar Recording (Opens in YouTube)
