Intergeo 2025 in Frankfurt — the world’s leading conference and exhibition for the geospatial industry, bringing together experts in geoinformation, surveying, and digital infrastructure.

Intergeo 2025 – Geoinformation Driving the Future of Infrastructure

From 7–9 October 2025, Frankfurt hosted Intergeo 2025 — the world’s leading event for the geospatial community.
With more than 500 exhibitors and over 18,000 participants, this year’s edition once again proved to be the key meeting point for professionals in geodesy, geoinformation, land management, and spatial data technologies.
The event combined an international trade fair with a rich conference program, providing a unique space for technology exchange, demonstrations, and networking.

Key Industry Trends

The overarching theme of Intergeo 2025 was “From Data to Decisions” — reflecting the growing importance of transforming massive spatial datasets into actionable insights for climate resilience, infrastructure management, and sustainable urban development.

Several core trends dominated both the exhibition and conference halls:

• GeoAI and Artificial Intelligence in Spatial Analysis
  AI was everywhere at this year’s Intergeo — from automated satellite image classification and LiDAR segmentation to predictive modelling in urban planning and engineering.
  Exhibitors showcased how GPU acceleration and cloud computing are enabling faster, more scalable data processing and analytics.

• Digital Twins and the BIM–GIS Convergence
  One of the most-discussed topics was the integration of Building Information Modelling (BIM) with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to create Digital Twins of cities and industrial facilities.
  These dynamic, 3D data environments enable simulation, monitoring, and decision-making across the entire lifecycle of assets — from planning to operation and maintenance.
  Presentations emphasized how this integration supports resilient and data-driven urban design, aligning digitalization with sustainability goals.

• Reality Capture and Mobile Mapping Technologies
  The latest generation of LiDAR scanners, UAVs, and mobile mapping systems demonstrated just how quickly and accurately real-world data can now be captured in 4D.
  Combined with AI-powered classification, such technologies enable near-real-time updates of infrastructure models and city maps.

• Interoperability and Open Data Ecosystems
  Across multiple panels and product showcases, the message was clear: openness and collaboration are no longer optional — they are becoming the industry standard.
  Participants highlighted the need for platforms that can seamlessly integrate data from multiple sources (point clouds, BIM, imagery, sensor data) in one digital environment.

Reflections from the Event

What made Intergeo 2025 stand out was the clear sense of momentum in the industry. AI is no longer experimental; GeoAI is becoming operational.
Digital twins are moving from conceptual frameworks to deployed, measurable systems used by city planners, utility companies, and industrial operators.
And the conversation around open standards — once theoretical — now has tangible solutions being implemented in practice.

As 3Deling, we are proud to be part of this evolution — providing technology that helps transform geospatial data into actionable insights and bridging the worlds of engineering, GIS, and visualization.

VI Seminarium “Nowoczesne Ciepło” – Digital Transformation and Decarbonization of District Heating

Just a few days after Intergeo, from 14–16 October 2025, the VI Seminarium “Nowoczesne Ciepło” took place in Gliwice — one of the key events in Poland’s energy sector calendar.
Organized by Nowa Energia Publishing House in partnership with PEC-Gliwice, the conference brought together representatives of district heating companies, municipalities, technology providers, and technical universities to discuss the future of Poland’s heating systems in the context of the energy transition.

Presentation by 3Deling during VI Seminarium “Nowoczesne Ciepło” in Gliwice — showcasing Webpano Visual Plant and digital solutions for managing technical infrastructure in district heating systems.

Key Themes and Industry Insights

The main focus of the seminar was the decarbonization of district heating systems and the growing importance of waste heat recovery and renewable energy sources.
This transformation is becoming increasingly strategic — not only in terms of climate policy, but also energy security and local sustainability.

The discussions highlighted several core areas:

• Waste Heat Utilization and Energy Recycling
  One of the most promising energy reserves lies in industrial and wastewater heat recovery.
  A flagship example was the “Park Zielonej Energii” project implemented by PEC-Gliwice — an innovative system based on a large-scale heat pump that recovers energy from municipal wastewater.
  The project demonstrates that the transformation of district heating is not just about new energy sources — it’s also about effective infrastructure management and visualization.

• Digital Transformation and Data Visualization
  Many presentations emphasized the role of 4D data and integrated digital environments in supporting modern infrastructure.
  3Deling’s presentation on “Visualization of Technical Infrastructure in District Heating Management” attracted significant interest from participants.
  We demonstrated how combining point clouds, BIM models, and 360° panoramic imagery in a single web environment allows operators to plan, monitor, and maintain complex heating networks more efficiently.
  These tools enable faster diagnostics, more accurate documentation, and improved operational safety — turning complex spatial data into practical management insights.

• Integration with Renewable Energy and Smart Networks
  Panel discussions stressed the urgent need to transition toward 4th and 5th generation low-temperature district heating networks, integrating renewable energy sources such as geothermal and solar power.
  The future of the sector lies in data-driven management systems that combine sensor data, BIM models, and 3D visualization into unified, interactive digital platforms.

Reflections from the Event

The VI Seminarium “Nowoczesne Ciepło” highlighted that decarbonization and digitalization are deeply interconnected pillars of the energy transition.
Achieving climate goals and improving the efficiency of heating networks requires solutions that connect data with real-world infrastructure.

For 3Deling, participation in the seminar was not only an opportunity to showcase our technology but also to engage in inspiring discussions with energy professionals.
These conversations confirmed that digital visualization and data interoperability are no longer emerging trends — they are becoming the standard practice in modern district heating.

Shared Perspectives – Connecting Geospatial Intelligence and Energy Transformation

Although Intergeo 2025 and VI Seminarium “Nowoczesne Ciepło” focused on different industries — geospatial technologies and district heating — both events revealed a powerful, shared direction for the future:
the integration of data, interoperability between platforms, and the rise of digital twins as a foundation for smarter infrastructure management.

Across both domains, one message was clear:
organizations that embrace data connectivity and visualization will lead the way in achieving efficiency, resilience, and sustainability.

At Intergeo, we witnessed how GeoAI, Digital Twins, and BIM–GIS integration are transforming how data is collected, processed, and applied — bridging the gap between the digital and the physical world.
Meanwhile, at Nowoczesne Ciepło, discussions on waste heat utilization, renewable integration, and 4D data management demonstrated how digital tools are accelerating the energy transition.

What unites these two perspectives is the recognition that data interoperability is not just a technical concept — it’s a practical necessity.
The ability to merge point clouds, BIM models, panoramic imagery, and IoT data into cohesive, interactive environments defines how industries can now collaborate across disciplines.

For 3Deling, this convergence is at the core of what we do.
Through our work on Webpano Visual Plant and data integration projects, we are helping bridge geospatial and engineering data, empowering clients to make faster, more informed decisions — whether in city infrastructure, industrial plants, or energy networks.

Both events confirmed that the future of infrastructure lies in openness, integration, and collaboration.
We are proud to contribute to this transformation — turning complex spatial data into clear, actionable insight for a more sustainable world.
