GIS in Action 2026

Indoor GIS is rapidly becoming foundational for space management, safety, operations, and user experience across campuses, hospitals, airports, and state and local government facilities. Yet many organizations struggle to move from pilot maps to an operational, trusted system that stays current. This presentation focuses on a practical, step-by-step approach to implementing and sustaining an Indoor GIS program. From defining business outcomes and governance to deploying data models, workflows, and integrations that keep indoor information accurate over time. We will focus on how to establish an authoritative indoor data foundation (floor plans, spaces, assets, routes, points of interest), select and standardize schemas, and integration with business systems such as enterprise asset management (EAM) and integrated workplace management systems (IWMS).
