Reflections on the FIG Working Week: Hanoi, Vietnam 22-26 April 2019

摘要

THE 2019 International Federation of Surveyors (an anglicisation of Federation Internationale des Geometres - FIG) working week was held in Hanoi, Vietnam between 22-26 April 2019. FIG is the premier international organisation representing the interest of surveyors worldwide. FIG is a World Bank and United Nations partnered federation with professional and academic members from over 110 countries, including CICES. These members represent land, engineering and hydrographic surveyors, cadastral professionals and quantity surveyors. Working weeks allow for an extended period to present research and for the commissions - ten groups that perform technical work around set disciplines and themes - to meet. It also includes a schedule of general FIG business meetings. There were additional specialist sessions running prior to the main event on building information modelling (BIM) and the Young Survey Network.
