SDG 15:

Commission
Chair Dan Roman gives his Statement on the sustainable
development goals in relation to Commission 5 - Positioning and
Measurement
FIG commission 6 “Engineering Surveys” gathers experts
that deal with the production of data on the geometry and
location, from large structures to small objects, either
man-made or natural. In the domain of construction - the area
that involves most surveying engineers - it is present in the
development of new buildings or facilities and during their life
cycle: it’s vital for the planning, the setting out of the
design, the dimensional control and monitoring of deformations.
The skills and the accuracy of the work presented, involved
these professionals in projects assigned to other areas, ranging
from mechanical and industrial engineering to environmental
safety.
Good results in engineering surveying, suitable for the purpose
in view, are dependent on several factors: adequate equipment,
appropriate methodologies and a motivated team with the
necessary skills. These skills come from different sources: they
can come from school education (at different levels) but also
from the experience transmitted by the most knowledgeable
co-workers. Thousands of surveying engineering teams are working
in different parts of the world, many associated with projects
that are of vital importance for the survival and well-being of
populations (as examples, the supply of goods such as water,
electricity or sewage systems, transport infrastructures and
buildings such as hospitals or schools) in the lesser developed
countries, small island developing States and African countries.
This work, and the way it is developed, contributes to many of
the sustainable development goals adopted by United Nations
member states.

Commission
Chair Marije Louwsma gives her Statement on the sustainable
development goals in relation to Commission 8 - Spatial Planning and
Development
The overall objective of Commission
9's work is to work towards improved
transparency in the land markets. Real estate has an
outstanding importance of the quality of living and working, the
transparency of this market is of particular importance.
Corruption, money laundering and white-collar crime are the more
difficult the more transparent the market is. Banks reduce the
risks of mortgage lending, the safer the development of property
values can be, and the risks of a financial crisis are reduced
if investors can be sure that the price of a property is not
completely off the market. In addition, governments can use the
data to make funding decisions for reducing soaring real estate
prices.
SDG 13 (Climate Action) is also part of it, because climate
neutrality cannot be achieved without climate-neutral and
sustainable construction and the related financing instruments
(which in turn also include the evaluation of the price effects
of climate-neutral buildings). We also have to look for partners
for these goals within the valuation- and the land management
scene. These communities are, especially in the Commission 9
area, most often also geographers, economists or sociologists.

FIG Standard Netowork's role is mainly advising and
supporting the Council and Commissions. In this capacity, all of
the SDGs that are of interest to FIG are relevant to the
Standards Network. All 17 of the SDGs is relevant to the
Standards Network. Commission work related to the SDGs and
requiring standards support, or involving standards, could
conceivably be relevant to the Standards Network.
