SIRGAS 2024 Symposium Presentation
The Executive Committee of SIRGAS is pleased to invite the entire Scientific and Technological Community related to Geodesy and Earth Sciences, to participate in the SIRGAS 2022 Symposium that will take place in the City of Bogotá, between the days November 18 and 21, 2024.
This edition of the SIRGAS Symposium has been organized jointly with the Military Geographic Institute of Chile, and has had the support of the Pan American Institute of Geography and History (PAIGH) and the International Association of Geodesy (IAG).
In addition, the “Real Time” School will take place the week before the Symposium, November 12-15 2024, in which topics related to the management of scientific software of GNSS networks for corrections in Real Time will be developed. These will be designated by the National Representative of their country since the School will take as a priority those people who are part of institutions and/or centers that have management of GNSS Networks or need to implement them.
Although the SIRGAS Symposiums mainly include the presence of National Representatives, members of the Working Groups and projects, these events are open to the entire regional and international geodetic community, and therefore we cordially invite:
Representatives of regional organizations related to the publication of geospatial information and Earth observations;
Representatives of public and private agencies that use geodetic and geophysical information;
Representatives of national institutions responsible for defining geodetic reference frames;
Representatives of universities and research centers on topics related to geodesy and geophysics; and
Scientists, professionals, technicians and students whose activities and research are related to the objectives of SIRGAS.
