Building upon the success and  best practices of other open mapping communities, we are exploring to set up a UN Mappers Ambassadors and Chapter initiative to expand the community and establish a community-owned data production and  sustainability.

The United Nations Global Service Centre’s (UNGSC) UN Maps Programme is pleased to announce the release of the UN Maps Mobile Application (App) version 2.0!

On 30 May, UNGSC Brindisi marked the 75th anniversary of Peacekeeping.

The United Nations Global Service Centre (UNGSC) is at the forefront of adopting state-of-the-art geospatial technology to address UN operational needs. UN Maps was established in 2019 to support the mandates of UN peacekeeping missions and Agencies, Funds and Programmes based on a suite of geospatial solutions and by leveraging both UN-managed and open data sources.

The Second United Nations Maps Conference took place at the United Nations Information and Communications Technology facility (UNICTF) in Valencia, Spain, between 6 and 10 March 2023. It brought together around 45 entities and external partners to strengthen coordination, collaboration and the capacity of geospatial information to meet global challenges.
