The Geodesy Reception 2026 will take place on Tuesday, May 5 (19:00-21:45) during the EGU General Assembly 2026. It will be hosted again at the main building of BEV (Federal Office of Metrology and Surveying). See recap of last years Geodesy Reception 2025.

Registration

⚠️ Registration is required, as capacity is limited to 120 participants. Attendance is only possible with confirmed registration! Access to the building will be granted upon verification at the entrance. Due to high demand and limited availability, registration will open in two separate tranches to accommodate participants from different time zones.

Registration was open on April 8 and 22, and all spots are now filled. You may revisit this page later, as registrants who can no longer attend have been asked to unsubscribe. Good luck!
