The purpose of the International Field Directors and Technologies Conference (IFD&TC) is to provide a forum for government, academic institutions and not-for-profit agencies to have informal communication between field director, field technology, and survey management personnel of a type not usually available in professional conventions or through professional journals. There are no membership dues and the only activity is an annual conference each May.  

     The conference sessions are informal and focus on innovations, work in progress or recently completed work.  Highlights of the conference include exchanges of information, practices, and opinions on relevant subjects of common interest. Finished papers ready for publication, public distribution, or production in official formal proceedings are not required.
