Mapping the Metaverse: Geospatial Frontiers for a Sustainable Future

As the world embraces rapid digital transformation, integrating geospatial intelligence, digital twins, and metaverse technologies redefines how we map, analyze, and interact with our environment. The evolution from traditional cartography to immersive 3D geospatial models and AI-driven simulations unlocks new possibilities for urban planning, climate resilience, infrastructure development, and sustainable resource management - becoming instrumental in advancing the United Nations of Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)

This conference explores the frontiers of geospatial science and its critical role in shaping the metaverse, bridging physical and digital worlds through real-time data, remote sensing, IoT, and artificial intelligence. From smart cities and digital twin ecosystems to climate modeling and disaster mitigation, geospatial technologies are at the heart of sustainable decision-making in the 21st century in building a sustainable digital future.

By bringing together experts from academia, industry, and government, this event will highlight cutting-edge research, breakthrough applications, and emerging trends in geospatial technology. Discussions will delve into the transformative power of AI-driven spatial analytics, real-time geospatial intelligence, and virtual geographic environments, emphasizing how these innovations contribute to a more connected, resilient, and sustainable world.
