CSDI Awards 2025 Final Presentation Highlight
To further promote the Common Spatial Data Infrastructure (CSDI) and enhance public interest in spatial data, the Geospatial Lab (GeoLab), established by the Development Bureau, is organising the "CSDI Awards 2025 - Co-creation X Northern Metropolis X Spatial Data". The Awards have attracted more than 140 teams and about 460 participants.
The Final Presentation was successfully completed on 19 and 27 July 2025. GeoLab has encouraged students and the general public to leverage spatial data to explore innovative proposals for the development of the Northern Metropolis. Participants utilised data from the CSDI portal to explore development possibilities for the Northern Metropolis across various domains, including environment, transportation, economy, urban planning, and community development, through spatial analysis and visualisation.
The Awards are honoured to invite professional judges from various disciplines and industries to evaluate the participants and provide valuable feedback.
