Europe's Leading Defence & Intelligence Conference & Exhibition

Geospatially-Enabling Multi-Int For Defence & Intelligence

DGI brings together heads of defence geospatial intelligence, remote sensing, GIS data & mapping, satellite imagery and analysis within the the military, governmental, and geo intelligence sectors. It attracts professionals who are responsible for using, and integrating, geo based capabilities in their operations and organisations. Attended by over 800 Geo professionals, DGI is where the GeoInt community comes together.

Addressing the use of geospatial information in scenarios such as international conflicts, defence operations, C4ISR, humanitarian disasters, crime, national security, border control, arms treaty monitoring and global climate change, the fundamental objective of DGI is to help both organisations understand how to build the necessary infrastructure and architecture to take advantage of geospatial intelligence capabilities.
