UN GGIM (United Nations Committee of Experts on Global Geospatial Information Management)

The UN GGIM (United Nations Committee of Experts on Global Geospatial Information Management) is a global body that coordinates how countries collect, share, and use geographic data—like maps and location information. Its goal is to improve understanding of Earth's features and support decision-making on issues like urban planning, disaster response, and environmental protection. By promoting standards and collaboration among nations, UN GGIM helps create accurate, reliable geospatial information that benefits governments, businesses, and communities worldwide.
