GGIM – United Nations Global Geospatial Information Management

GGIM (United Nations Global Geospatial Information Management) is a United Nations initiative that provides a global intergovernmental framework to strengthen the management and governance of geospatial information. It promotes the development of national geospatial capacities, standards, and policies to support sustainable development and evidence-based decision-making.

In geodesy, GGIM plays an important role through its endorsement of the Global Geodetic Reference Frame (GGRF) and its recognition of geodesy as a fundamental infrastructure for positioning, navigation, Earth observation, disaster risk reduction, and climate monitoring. GGIM fosters international cooperation to ensure the long-term sustainability and accessibility of geodetic infrastructure worldwide.
