Join us for the fourth State of New Zealand Cartography seminar, a full-day event exploring the maps we make now and those we need for the future. This biennial seminar welcomes perspectives from across the cartographic and geospatial community: maps, other visual geographic representations, and processes that lead to these maps, such as cartographic design, data management or GIS-based spatial analysis. Talks can focus on the local, national and everyday, through to issues of global significance.

If interested in presenting, please submit a title and brief abstract (up to 300 words) by Friday, 30 May 2025.

We are excited to announce that GeoCart'2024 registration is now open!  Early discount packages will end 31 July.

The Call for Contributions continues, with abstracts due by 07 June. If you have something interesting to share about your work, projects, or research, we want you to submit an abstract!

It is with the heaviest of hearts we announce the passing of our dear friend, colleague, and Vice President, Igor Drecki.  Igor and his wife, Iwona, were killed in a tragic car accident on 26 August.

Igor's drive and seemingly ceaseless energy for all things cartographic was infectious. He was one of those lucky people who turned their passion into a career, and he always had a dozen projects underway.  Igor's legacy is all around us, from university walking maps to GeoCart, CartoPRESS books to the ICA News and, most importantly, his fervent dedication to the NZ Cartographic Society, which he helped revive in the 1990s and has been a driving force behind ever since.
