Geospatial data is a critical enabler of modern government. From environmental sustainability to transport planning, location intelligence empowers public sector organisations to make faster, smarter, and more transparent decisions.

With the UK Government committed to leveraging spatial data as articulated in the UK Geospatial Strategy 2030, which envisions a comprehensive national location data framework by 2030, unlocking the full value of location data has never been more important to support government operations. The key missions of the strategy will aim to:

  1. Embrace enabling technologies to accelerate geospatial innovation
  2. Drive greater use of geospatial applications and insights across the economy
  3. Build confidence in the future geospatial ecosystem
