WGIC Data Committee Webinar

Data to Decisions

An executive-level webinar built on the WGIC Data Committee white paper. As AI, cloud processing and multi-source pipelines change how spatial data is created, this session examines what “decision-grade” should mean — provenance, governance, metadata and accountability — and gives leaders a practical playbook for assessing their own organization.

About this hub

One council. Many committees. A single front door.

The World Geospatial Industry Council brings together the industry’s committees, working groups and member companies around the questions that matter most — trust in data, the workforce of the future, and the policies shaping our shared infrastructure.

This umbrella site is where those conversations happen live. Every WGIC webinar — whether it launches a white paper, a committee report or a quarterly policy scan — is announced, explored and revisited here, always searchable by the topics and organizations you care about.

Thought leadership, not sales pitches

Every session is built on a WGIC publication or committee workstream — substance first, always.

Executive level, cross-functional

Designed for data, technology, policy and commercial leaders — not hands-on technical training.

Resources you keep

White papers, playbooks and trackers accompany each event, so the value outlives the broadcast.

Featured launch event
