One prize is announced for the FIG Congress 2026:
The Survey Review Biennial Prize is sponsored by Survey Review. Survey Review is a peer-reviewed international journal that has been published continuously since 1931. It brings together current research, theory and practice in the broad areas of geospatial positioning and information, geodesy, remote sensing, survey and mapping, and land administration. These disciplines are vital to tackling global challenges including enhancing security of land tenure and land rights for all, climate change and sustainability, and disaster response. The journal is an invaluable resource for those who seek to maintain their currency of knowledge in these rapidly developing fields.
The Survey Review prize will, again this year, be offered to the author and presenter of an outstanding selected peer-review paper. Papers submitted by young surveyors will be prioritized (under the age of 35 or within 10 years of qualifying). In the abstract submission form you can tick a box indicating that you want your paper to be taken into consideration for the Prize.
The paper will be clearly marked in the proceedings as the Survey Review prize paper and will be presented onsite in a suitably high profile session. Survey Review Ltd will fund the prize of € 2,000. Payment will be made to the individual once the paper has been presented. If the paper is jointly authored and presented, the prize value remains € 2,000 and can be paid to one of the individuals, or shared between them at their choice.
The abstract of the paper will be in included in the FIG proceedings,
but the full text of the paper will appear on the SR publisher's
website, to which the FIG proceedings will link. There will be permanent
free access to the paper on the Survey Review publisher’s website - this
element of the prize is worth around an additional € 3,000 given Open
Access publishing rates.
FIG will also use the paper as a FIG Article of the Month in the FIG
newsletter.
