A member of many scientific and professional organizations, i.a. the secretary to the Geoinformatics Section of the Polish Academy of Sciences (2010–2012), a member of the Geoinformatics Section of the Polish Academy of Arts and Sciences (since 2014), a member of the Polish National Committee for International Cartographic Association, a member of the board of the Association of Polish Cartographers, a member of the Committee on Geodesy of Polish Academy of Sciences (since 2016), The chairman of the Working Group "Smart networks, information-communication and geoinformation technologies" (The Polish Smart Specialization) at the Ministry of Development, v-ce Chairman of Polish Spatial Information Infrastructure Council, The chairman (2020-2021) of the Scientific Networks of Geospatial Analysis (24 universities and research institutes).
Professional experience: the author or co-author of about 20 expert studies for the Head Office of Geodesy and Cartography [Główny Urząd Geodezji i Kartografii] and several others. Some of his studies have been used in many regulations regarding Geodetic and Cartographic Law and in ordinances to the Deregulation Act of 2013. From 19\99 to 2003, he was the main designer of the Polish Topographic Database.
