Connecting Africa’s Geospatial Future: Turning Regional Priorities into Global Standards
OGC Connect Cape Town brings together government leaders, mapping agencies, researchers, technology companies, standards experts, developers, and innovators from across Africa and around the world to collaborate on the future of geospatial technology and interoperability.
As OGC’s first major Connect event on the African continent, the meeting represents an important opportunity to deepen collaboration, strengthen regional engagement, and elevate African priorities and innovation within the global geospatial community.
The event will focus on practical challenges and real-world implementation areas shaping the future of geospatial infrastructure and digital transformation — from land administration and 3D cadastre to climate resilience, rural mapping, AI, and interoperable digital systems.
