Every day, humanity benefits from geodesy. Geodesy is the science of measuring the size, shape and orientation of our planet and it is a foundation for evidence-based policies, decisions and program delivery. Geodesy is used every day, in the fields of civil engineering, industrial automation, agriculture, construction, mining, financial transactions, intelligent transport systems, disaster response and emergency management, environmental studies and scientific research. An amazing panel of speakers will present the benefits of geodesy to society in a virtual open forum on Earth Day, the 22 April 2021, starting at 10.30 am (UTC).
