State Authority for Geospatial Information (ASIG) is participating in the EUREF 2026 Symposium, one of the most important annual activities in the field of European geodesy, which is taking place in Paris, France, from 23–25 June 2026, with the participation of European experts and institutions in the field of geodesy.

ASIG representatives from the Geodetic Reference Framework Sector presented and discussed at this symposium the developments, projects and progress of the Albanian Geodetic Reference Framework (AGRF), in the context of its modernization according to European standards.

The main focus of their presentation was:

  • Calculation of the geoid in Albania, as a basis for the new modern vertical reference of the country,
  • Determination of velocity vectors for the 27 ALBCORS stations, in collaboration with the EUREF Working Group on “EPN Densification”, as well as their integration into the European Dense Velocity Model.

Also, during EUREF 2026, the most interesting topics of the moment in the field of geodesy were addressed, such as:

  • European reference systems ETRS89/ETRF and EVRF,
  • EUREF Permanent Network (EPN),
  • GNSS technologies,
  • Quantum gravimetry and atomic clock levelling,
  • National reports on the development of geodetic infrastructures in European countries.

ASIG’s participation in this activity represents an important opportunity to exchange knowledge and experiences with the European geodesy community, as well as to be part of discussions on the latest developments in the field of geodetic reference systems, modern technologies and geospatial information.
