* Learn about the latest technologies, trends, and buzzwords in geospatial science, and understand what they actually mean for your organization.
* Connect with experts who administer, design, or support geospatial systems across government, tribal, and private sectors.
* See real-world success stories showing how GIS improves public services, infrastructure management, emergency preparedness, natural resource work, and more.
* Explore solutions offered by companies specializing in geospatial software, data, mapping, analytics, and support services.
* Build new skills applicable to administrators, managers, educators, surveyors, engineers, utility professionals, planners, and anyone who uses or relies on spatial data.
* Network with peers from city, county, state, tribal, academic, and business communities who share similar challenges and goals.
* Gain insights that help you make informed decisions—whether you supervise GIS staff, use location-based data, or simply want to understand how geospatial tools can benefit your field.

*The Geospatial Summit will follow the October 11-13, 2026 North Dakota Association of Counties Conference, saving on transportation costs and travel time.*
