Association for Geographic Information Announces 2026 Council Changes

The Association for Geographic Information, the membership group for organisations and individuals working in the geospatial sector, has announced, with immediate effect, changes to its Council membership.

The AGI Council is elected by the membership and the team of volunteers brings a wealth of individual knowledge and experience to set the strategic direction for the organisation.

New appointments include Ian Maxfield, who steps up to the position of Vice Chair, Annie Ankers, who joins Council as Treasurer, and Vickie White who takes on the role of Deputy Honorary Secretary. Christine Armour, Mick Dunn, and Marcus Humphrey also join the Council representing AGI Northern Ireland, the newly formed 3D Network, and AGI Scotland, respectively.

“It is a pleasure to welcome new Council members to the team and to offer support for those existing members who are taking on new roles,” commented Fergus Craig, Chair of the Association for Geographic Information. “I would also like to extend my sincere and grateful thanks to the members of Council who have reached the end of their term or made the decision to step down. These include my Co-Chair for the past two years, Peter ter Haar, Past Chairs Adam Burke and Denise McKenzie, and Alan Moore who hands over his role as Treasurer. On behalf of the Council, I would also like to recognise the hard work and contributions of Esther Ogbu, Dr Sara Stewart, Sam Tizzard, and James Wardroper.”
