Geoinformatics Events
Location matters! Salzburg is a premium city for conferences and events. Our philosophy is to be ‘green and smart’ about the events that we organise. We focus on the detail to ensure that we deliver events that offer excellent atmosphere, learning and networking opportunities to our communities.
Continuous
AGIT
Every year in July, Z_GIS organizes the AGIT. Formerly known as GI_Salzburg & GI_Forum, two successful Geoinformatic conferences with a 30+-year history, AGIT will continue to be known as the meeting place for Geoinformatics communities and thus as a hub for professional exchange, further education, innovation and quite simply, as a creative milieu.

GIS Day & iDEAS:lab
Regular events for students, innovators and the general public are organised at the iDEAS:lab, and a special annual highlight is GIS Day – as a national contribution to the worldwide GIS Day initiative.
We also contribute to conferences, workshops and summer schools at other locations, and increasingly in virtual space, currently e.g.
- GIS in Central Asia – GISCA
We are also happy to refer to events organised by partners such as AGEO.
