Maps for a data-driven Europe at the European Parliament
| 29 November 2022
The event took place on the 29th of November and hosted by Cristian Bușoi, Chair of the EP Committee on Industry, Research and Energy, and supported by EuroGeographics.
The debate focused on discussing and demonstrating how geographic information addresses several issues; from the implementation of the Green Deal or multimodal transport strategies to providing efficient solutions for civil protection and disaster management bodies or responses to Covid-19. Please consult the agenda for further information.
Europe is leading the way in providing location data to link information and action across national boundaries to enable a sustainable, safer and prosperous society. To achieve a successful digital transformation, Europe will need to meet the demand for geospatial information which will continue to grow into the next decade.
We look forward to demonstrating next-level mapping for modern-day data infrastructures!
