Dear Colleagues and Friends,
It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 5th Young Surveyors European Meeting in Helsinki, Finland. Surveyors have always been surveying the world of tomorrow, haven’t they? You may see “Suomi 100” logo somewhere. It means Finland will be 100 years old this year. In that time, Finland has experienced a civil war, World War II, rebuilding era, massive migration from the countryside to the cities, digital development, mapping the whole country and millions of other things. During this time, the surveyors have been in a key role to build the country to the state it looks like today. Today, we are part of this continuum. We are surveying the world of tomorrow and transiting from digitalisation to augmented reality. Let’s have a fantastic meeting and keep our eyes and ears open listening to the intriguing presentations, as the world of tomorrow remains unknown! We would like to thank our supporters and sponsors but most important wish you a fruitful and exciting time here in Finland!
