With advances in geospatial technologies and the increasing availability of spatial data and services, spatial thinking and GI competencies will play a significant role in the information-based economies of the 21st-century. The Capacity Development discussion has been planned with the mandate to bring together educators and professionals on a platform to share experience and expertise on benefits and merits of knowledge creation and technical skills dissemination through GI education; to study and analyse changing trends in geospatial education vis-a-vis market demands; and to analyse, access and reinvent appropriate pedagogical methodologies addressing developments in educational standards and curricula. The round table would be a continuation of the last year discussion on capacity building and would focus on the major concerns and issues discussed in the last convention.
