The Egyptian Committee on Surveying and Mapping (ECSM) has formed an
organizing committee for the preparation of the FIG Working Week 2005. This
committee has nominated the delegates to the FIG commissions as well as defining
the working groups for the preparation of the WW 2005. These working groups have
to accomplish the following tasks and reviewing it with the organizing
committee:
- Conference pre- and post-excursions and tours to be at the convenient of
all members
- Technical excursions and social events
- The design of the conference slogan
- Surveying the most suitable conference places in Cairo taking into
consideration the transportation and the easiest ways to and from the hotels
to the conference place
- Preparing the conference theme on which the conference papers will be
submitted and to be linked in a good way to the previous themes of the FIG
meetings
- Contacting the members of the Arab League in the surveying and mapping
profession (Syria, Lebanon etc.). We see that it is most important to have a
full information about the hottest issues in the region of the Middle East
about the role of surveying and mapping in the regional development.
The organizing committee has also proposed that the conference date will be
on the second week of May (8-15 May 2005), as the weather will be suitable in
Egypt.
