Financial assistance

Thanks to the sponsorship of the Pan American Institute of Geography and History (PAIGH) and the International Association of Geodesy (IAG), SIRGAS has a modest budget to support the attendance of some exhibitors at the meeting.

Said support will be distributed according to the registered presentation to be presented during the meeting, prior approval of the Scientific Council and the SIRGAS Executive Committee.

For the final allocation of the available budget, it will be essential that the entities to which the beneficiaries belong assume a complementary item (transfer, stay or maintenance) to cover all expenses.

Those interested in this support must complete the form for exhibitors before June 30, 2022, and attach the following documents in pdf format through the form:

  • A note addressed to the Executive Committee of SIRGAS indicating how you will use the financial support (i.e. transfer, accommodation or maintenance) and mentioning the type of support you will receive from your institution (clarify the country of residence); and
  • An endorsement from the institution you represent.

 

Vertical Reference System Workshop

The Vertical Reference System Workshop will take place from November 2 to 4, 2022 jointly with the SIRGAS 2022 Symposium. The workshop will review the guidelines and actions required for the materialization of the IHRS (International Height Reference System) and topics related to the unification of the vertical references of the SIRGAS member states.

This workshop has been framed around the Resolution “A Global Geodetic Reference Frame for Sustainable Development” adopted by the United Nations General Assembly in 2015, which encourages American countries and international organizations to strengthen global cooperation to promote capabilities in the field of geodesy, with the objective of ensuring the development, sustainability and promotion of a regional geodetic reference.

The workshop will be held at the Military Geographic Institute of Chile (Santiago de Chile), and will be conducted in Spanish by Dr. Gabriel do Nascimento Guimarães (Federal University of Uberlândia) and Eng. Agri. Hernán Guagni (National Geographic Institute of Argentina).

Those interested in participating in the workshop must complete the pre-registration form by June 30, 2022.
