GisAction, honored to be a sponsor of GEO Data Providers Workshop, will present the own works with the intention to witness the importance of using geospatial data with free global coverage through a single source that helps to ensure quality, consistency and availability of standardized metadata. This allows us to support the development of business growth and realize business projects.
GisAction considers important to actively participate in this process of collaboration and reflection on the opening of data to contribute positively and be part of the common future challenges.
