Leading with geospatial innovation 

Dave Rowe, Full Stack Developer, Geovation by Ordnance Survey

Leading with innovation will explore what we mean by innovative solutions that use geospatial technology. Not just technologies that are new and exciting, but how we can use the power of location data in new ways to tackle key problems, such as our climate, energy provision, waterways, and farming.

Importance of standards and alignment to FAIR principles

Allan Jamieson, Data Standards Lead, Ordnance Survey 

Geospatial data standards form part of the underlying architecture by which geospatial information can be discovered, collected, published, shared, stored, combined, and applied. Standards also enable collaborative geospatial information management across international organizations, governments and subject domains.
