9th Asia Pacific Meeting on Near Surface Geoscience & Engineering
4-6 May 2027 – Chiang Mai, Thailand
ABOUT THE EVENT
As near-surface challenges continue to evolve in complexity and scale, the need for collaboration, innovation, and interdisciplinary approaches has never been greater. The 9th Asia Pacific Meeting on Near Surface Geoscience & Engineering (9th NSGE) will bring together geoscientists, engineers, researchers, academics, and industry professionals in Chiang Mai, Thailand, continuing the meeting’s tradition as a regional platform for knowledge exchange, technical advancement, and professional collaboration.With a focus on emerging technologies, practical applications, sustainable solutions, and cross-disciplinary perspectives, the 9th NSGE will explore key developments across environmental and engineering geophysics, site characterization, infrastructure and urban development, resource exploration, and natural hazard assessment. As the energy landscape continues to transform, the meeting will also provide opportunities to discuss the growing role of near-surface methods in supporting the energy transition, geothermal development, carbon storage, environmental monitoring, and resilient infrastructure.
Nestled among the mountains of northern Thailand, Chiang Mai offers a distinctive and inspiring setting for this regional gathering. Known for its rich Lanna heritage, historic temples, vibrant cultural traditions, and close connection with the surrounding natural environment, the city provides a unique backdrop for meaningful technical exchange, professional networking, and interdisciplinary collaboration. As a well-established centre for education, research, and innovation in northern Thailand, Chiang Mai also offers an environment that encourages the exchange of ideas between academia, industry, and the wider geoscience community.
Whether you are a returning participant or attending the NSGE for the first time, the 9th NSGE promises a stimulating programme of technical sessions, discussions, workshops, and networking opportunities. Join us in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and be part of advancing near-surface geoscience and engineering through knowledge, innovation, and collaboration across the Asia Pacific region.
