Join us to explore the intersection of AI and science — from geospatial discovery and innovation to the frontiers of convergence science. The three-day Forum consists of workshops and tutorials, presentations, posters, and panels focusing on 4 key themes:

• Frontiers in Convergence Science – Addressing challenges and opportunities of convergence science using geospatial knowledge and integrative approaches
• Spatial AI & Data Science – Advancing frontiers of spatial AI and data science for  real-world solutions
• CyberGIS & Cyberinfrastructure Innovation – Enabling high-performance, scalable spatial analysis
• Education & Workforce Development – Preparing the next generation of spatial AI and data science professionals

This year the I-GUIDE Forum will join forces with the annual Harnessing the Data Revolution (HDR) Ecosystem Conference. The joint conference brings together multidisciplinary researchers to shape the future of AI and data-intensive sciences and provides an expanded multidisciplinary platform for collaboration and networking across a variety of fields.
