The Association for Geographic Information (AGI): The AGI represents the interests of the geographic information industry, including users in the public and private sectors, suppliers of software, hardware, data and services, consultants, academics and interested individuals. By providing this forum, AGI can give unparalleled opportunities to communicate with the GI community for significant business ends.

The objective of the AGI is to maximize the use of GI for the benefit of the citizen, good governance and commerce.

The AGI pursues these aims through a wide range of activities including lobbying, an active web site, a number of publications, specialist meetings and seminars throughout the country. These are all supported by our annual conference and trade exhibition.

BARSC is the British Association of Remote Sensing Companies and is tasked with representing the interests of all companies, organisations and individuals involved with and using remote sensing technology and data.

Formed in 1985, BARSC continues to deliver an interesting and diverse range of presentations and meetings for the associations’ members as well as playing a key role in representing their interests to national and international government and private organisations.

Remote sensing touches the lives of everyone, whether they know it or not. Satellite data is used routinely across a huge range of applications including; maintaining national safety, mapping city streets and homes (both in two and three dimensions), monitoring global climate change, managing forest, waterways and coasts as well as finding and exploiting natural resources.

The European Association of Remote Sensing Companies (EARSC) is a non-profit-making organisation that is devoted to the promotion of the European remote sensing industry.

Since 1989, EARSC has provided its Members technical expertise and policy guidance, and has contributed to establish industry contact with European institutional bodies. In these times of intensified European integration and co-operation, the role of EARSC is becoming increasingly vital. Nowadays we would like to bring the specialized knowledge of EARSC’s members to bear on current European issues. That is for, the Association maintains close links with key European Institutions, including EC-DG Industry, EEA, ESA and National Space Agencies, providing a key unified voice on wider European issues.

The Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society is a registered Charity that provides a forum for exchange of ideas and information related to Earth observation. The Society promotes educational activities in remote sensing and photogrammetry to the public, as well as academic and commercial activities. Two leading international peer reviewed journals: The Photogrammetric Record and The International Journal of Remote Sensing (IJRS) are the official journals of the Society, as well as the recently launched Remote Sensing Letters (RSL). RSPSoc is managed by its Council and has its own office, based at the University of Nottingham in the UK. There are approximately 1000 members worldwide. The Society is the UK affiliating body to the International Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing and fosters links between international, commercial, industrial and academic organisations.

The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC®) is a not-for-profit, international voluntary consensus standards organization. OGC members collaboratively develop interface standards, encoding standards and best practices that add value to their location information and geoprocessing software and services.
Businesses, government agencies and research organizations increasingly depend on the Internet for "where" information.
Technologies such as geographic information systems (GIS), remote sensing, surveying and mapping, mobile devices with GPS, and sensor webs provide such information, but the information’s value depends on whether or not it can be communicated, integrated and used.
Membership in the OGC gives technology users a unique opportunity to efficiently solve interoperability problems, sharing costs with other user organizations. Technology providers benefit because standards expand their market reach. Providers are also able to share the cost of developing interfaces, and the OGC provides an unparalleled forum to meet new customers and stay at the forefront of a rapidly evolving industry.
