The Importance of the Conference

The importance of this conference lies in the shift from traditional geography to digital geography with the support of modern technology in geographical thought through applications such as remote sensing, geographic information systems software, statistics, and digital tabulation. Modern geography can help humans solve issues related to the environment and society and predict the dangers facing them.
