Texas GIS Forum

October 19  – 23, 2026

Geospatial work shapes how Texas plans, builds, and responds. GIS professionals support the systems our state relies on every day, even when that work goes unseen. The Texas GIS Forum brings those efforts to the forefront, connecting the people behind the maps, data, and decision-making.

From visionary keynotes and peer-led presentations to interactive spaces and hands-on learning, the Forum offers a comprehensive look at the state of the industry. Beyond the sessions, our social and networking opportunities provide the space to reconnect with collegues and build new partnerships.

Join your peers from across the state and beyond to share what's working, what's changing, and what's next. This year, geospatial takes the stage.
