• To promote the development of GIS and Remote Sensing (RS) data, technologies, methods and services for the pacific region;
  • To enable collaboration and share lessons learnt across regional agencies and commercial parties;
  • To discuss and establish methods in building adaptation for the Pacific environment for solutions working already well outside the region;
  • To manage the distribution, publication and awareness of conference outcomes;
  • To establish robust links with other GIS, RS and scientific bodies regionally and globally.
