PGRSC National Focal Points Network
![](https://nxga6f.n3cdn1.secureserver.net/wp-content/uploads/2023/07/FocalPoint_network-1024x736.png)
In order to regionalise our annual Pacific Islands GIS & RS Conference, the Council moved forth to select/nominate national focal points. The focal points are responsible for the following activities:
- Collect and summarise ideas on improving and creating a more inclusive Pacific Islands GIS & RS Conference
- Promote the Conference by receiving the latest news
- Follow up national presentations and assist in facilitation
- Distribute spatial and non spatial data.
- Distribute the GIS&RS Newsletter
Find a list below of the National Focal Points with their contact information. If there are any concerns, or if you would like to represent your country as a focal contact please feel free to email pgrsc@pgrsc.com
