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.
