Expert Reviews

“Considering the prominence of the speakers I am confident that the conference will be a significant step towards a common understanding how geoinformation should be treated in the maritime domain for the sake of safety and efficiency!”

Dr.-Ing. Mathias Jonas, Head of Nautical Hydrography, German Hydrographer, Bundesamt für Seeschifffahrt und Hydrographie

"I am delighted to have been invited to participate at this inaugural conference and to hear and discuss the latest developments in geospatial information in the maritime domain. As the Principal behind the UK Civil Hydrography Programme, I am looking forward to outlining how international survey standards, collaborative working and data sharing are key under the 'Gather Once, Use Many Times' philosophy. It is particularly pleasing to see that the conference has attracted expert speakers and important topics, and to see commercial, civil and defence communities coming together to tackle a common theme."

André Cocuccio, Hydrography Manager, Maritime and Coastguard Agency

"Geo Maritime 2012 will be the first opportunity in the UK for commerce, government and defence stakeholders to jointly and constructively discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the maritime community."

Enlightening and educational - a huge Bravo Zulu to the organisers and industry who make this happen

William Lingsch, Director, Littoral & Riverine Department, US Navy Oceanographic Office

DGI continues as the premier geospatial intelligence conference in Europe providing great opportunities to learn more about the issues, opportunities and technology facing providers and consumers of GEOINT. The balance of formal presentations and focus days, combined with great networking among leading government, academic and industry executives, makes this a compelling event. 2011 was the best yet. WBR provided a world class event

John Day, Director of Defence Business Development, Esri

Initially I wasn't sure about investing our time and energy in DGI 2011 because there are so many industry events and they can be very similar. However, the level of focus and attention to detail from DGI 2011 organisers made the event very successful from our perspective and if you are involved in Defence & Intelligence anywhere around the world, I would thoroughly recommend you attend and participate in this event. I know the OGC will be back at DGI 2012!

Steven Ramage, Executive Director, Marketing and Communications, The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)

If we didn’t attend DGI every year we would be missing out on a very big opportunity. All the decision-makers gather at DGI.

Rick Mort, Technical Sales Manager, BAE Systems

Remarkable keynote speakers, dynamic panel discussions and noteworthy technology demonstrations – very relevant to our target market.
