Earth observation, digital twins, BIM and tangible use cases will demonstrate at INTERGEO from October 7-9, 2025 how geodata and technologies are making our everyday lives smarter - from climate adaptation to transparency in the real estate markets.
Frankfurt/Main, June 03, 2025 - From October 7 to 9, Messe Frankfurt will be the meeting place for all those who translate geodata into concrete solutions. INTERGEO 2025 will bring high-tech and practice together on one stage: earth observation analyses to combat heat islands in cities, digital twins for resilient infrastructure, BIM workflows for efficient construction and best-practice projects from urban planning, construction, agriculture and the real estate industry. Engineering geodesy and scanning technologies play a central role here - for precise surveying, monitoring buildings and creating high-resolution 3D models. Three days of concentrated know-how - for smart cities, robust networks and profitable business models.
Technology meets application
This year, the most important event for geodesy, geoinformation and land management will once again present two stages directly in the halls in addition to the tried-and-tested mix of scientific and technical CONFERENCE and practice-oriented EXPO:
The Main Stage is all about new technologies and innovations such as GeoAI, sensor technology, mapping workflows and standards. In addition, the new Application Dome will focus on real use cases for the first time. It's not about theory, but about tangible results: Best practice stories show how innovative tools are already solving real problems today - whether in urban development, mobility, the environment or the energy sector. “With the new Application Stage and the Main Stage, we are bringing knowledge transfer, exchange and concrete practical solutions even closer to the markets. They are not a marginal phenomenon - they set the pace for the EXPO and create real meeting spaces for innovation, business and networking,” explains Olaf Freier, Chief Strategy Officer of HINTE Expo & Conference. “This makes INTERGEO 2025 more than ever a platform where the future is shaped and solutions are made visible.”
Earth Observation – Satellites on an important mission
In cooperation with the DLR, INTERGEO will show how satellite data enables concrete climate strategies. From high-resolution satellite images to drone images and mobile 3D scanners - together they provide a seamless data stream that can be directly integrated into GIS workflows. This enables cities such as Dresden or Langenfeld, for example, to precisely localize heat islands, simulate different greening scenarios and quantify their cooling effect. In the event of extreme events - such as the monsoon floods in Pakistan in 2022 - up-to-date flood maps are created within hours so that emergency services can quickly identify risk zones. In the Alps, continuous monitoring enables the early detection of slow landslides and protects traffic routes and settlements. And metropolitan areas across Europe benefit from comprehensive land use data sets that reveal potential for redensification or green space bottlenecks. In this way, reality capturing combines precise recording with decisions that can be implemented immediately - from climate resilience and disaster prevention to sustainable urban planning.
Real Estate Lab - Premiere at INTERGEO 2025
With the new Real Estate Lab, the real estate industry is entering the INTERGEO stage with a special format. The focus: the intelligent combination of geodata, real estate data and AI. The exclusive format brings together thought leaders - for more transparency, efficiency and innovation along the entire real estate life cycle.
Start-up-Area & GeoCampus
Fresh ideas, big stage: The Start-up Area at INTERGEO offers start-ups targeted visibility - with pitch slots on the Main Stage, strong communication and attractive funding opportunities from BAFA. It is also supported by Geoawesome, the international platform of the geospatial community.
The GeoCampus, supported by KonGeoS, connects young talent, research and industry - a strong platform for recruiting and innovation.
Conference: Geoinformation for a smarter world
The CONFERENCE offers a wealth of scientific expertise and practical exchange. “Today, geodata answers the big questions from climate resilience to the energy transition. INTERGEO 2025 brings together the players who are shaping the solutions.” says Prof. Dr.-Ing. Rudolf Staiger, President of DVW e. V.
The opening keynotes “Geo & AI” will kick off the event, in which leading minds from research and industry will show how artificial intelligence not only interprets maps but writes them itself. This will be followed by a full day of topics on digital twins: Trend analyses illuminate the strategic value of virtual images, while practical reports explain their use in large-scale projects and critical infrastructures.
At the same time, the Earth Observation Track explores the possibilities of satellite-based data collection in greater depth. In cooperation with the DLR, Copernicus data is used to identify heat islands, quantify heavy rainfall risks and model CO₂ emission scenarios - concrete tools that municipalities can use to fulfill their duty to adapt to climate change.
Friends of research and science will find academic depth in the Forum Frontiers of Geodetic Science (FroGS): the spectrum of sessions ranges from “Gravity Field: Why and How?” to airborne and space-based remote sensing and “Earth in Motion”. This creates a dialog space in which the most precise GNSS measurement series meet interdisciplinary climate research.
Other strands are dedicated to UAV-supported mapping, smart cartography & AR visualization, policy & digital sovereignty as well as a special offer on real estate & finance. In total, more than one hundred presentations will form a compass that shows decision-makers where the industry is heading. The exact daily line-up will be continuously updated online from June.
Tickets & Service
The ticket store is open; early bird conditions for the conference are valid until August 17, 2025. A conference ticket grants access to all stages and the Expo on all three days.
