Under the bold theme “GIS – Integrating Everything, Everywhere,” TUC 2025 will spotlight Geographic Information Systems (GIS) not merely as spatial data tools but as intelligent platforms that connect time, people, systems, and places into a single decision-making ecosystem. This AI Events news report highlight that this conference will be very useful for those interested in AI as it will expound as to how GIS technology can be used to bridge silos across government, industry, and environmental efforts in real time.
Real-World Crisis Simulation Shows the Power of GIS Integration
A major draw at TUC 2025 is a powerful simulation showcasing GIS technology in a real-world disaster scenario—the recent earthquake-induced collapse of the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) building. This gripping demo illustrates how GIS can integrate field surveys, risk data, 3D visualizations, and inter-agency communication to coordinate effective rescue efforts. The scenario makes clear that GIS is no longer just about maps—it’s a force multiplier during crises, enabling life-saving decisions under pressure.
“GIS is now a strategic tool that brings together data from every dimension,” said Ms. Prae Panthumwanich, President of Esri Thailand. “It supports decision-making at every level—national, organizational, and societal—by offering a clear, dynamic view of the situation at hand. TUC 2025 is the arena where we reveal GIS’s true capability to drive Thailand forward through authentic, intelligent data integration.”
Unveiling ArcGIS with AI and Digital Twin Capabilities
Attendees at TUC 2025 will get a first-hand look at the new ArcGIS platform, which merges artificial intelligence, cloud computing, digital twins, and smart analytics into a single powerhouse. It enables organizations to analyze massive real-world datasets and link various information streams into one comprehensive view—all without requiring deep coding knowledge. Whether it’s for smart city planning, utility optimization, energy forecasting, or carbon footprint reduction, ArcGIS is now positioned as a key tool for Thailand’s ESG and economic goals.
“From disaster management to sustainable development, GIS is becoming the nerve center for nationwide coordination,” said Ms. Panthumwanich. “It’s not just about visualizing geography—it’s about understanding relationships, predicting outcomes, and making decisions that affect lives and livelihoods.”
A Forum of Learning, Collaboration, and Innovation
This year marks the 29th edition of the Thailand User Conference, and it promises a rich lineup: over 20 innovation booths, nine deep-dive workshops, and special keynote sessions from global and local tech leaders. Experts from a range of sectors including energy, utilities, environmental sciences, and government will come together to share their knowledge and future visions of GIS.
What sets TUC 2025 apart is its interactive format. Attendees will not only hear about new tools and case studies—they’ll get hands-on experience, speak directly with developers, and engage in knowledge exchanges tailored to Thailand’s emerging needs. Esri Thailand has also localized cutting-edge insights from the recent Esri Global User Conference in the U.S., bringing the most relevant trends home for Thai stakeholders.
Bridging Data to Decisions for a Future Ready Thailand
The message from TUC 2025 is clear: GIS is no longer confined to technical departments or academic labs—it is the foundation for national strategy, resilience, and sustainability. In a world facing constant change, Thailand’s institutions must harness platforms that unite insight with action, and data with decisions. Esri Thailand is ensuring that GIS becomes that transformative backbone.
As Ms. Panthumwanich aptly summarized, “GIS now connects understanding with action. This is the key to surviving and thriving in an era of digital transformation. Our mission is to help every Thai organization leverage this to build stability and future-readiness.”
The Thailand User Conference 2025 will be held on Thursday, August 14, from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at the Miracle Grand Convention Hotel in Bangkok.
