The National Geographical Organization of Iran or National Geographical Organization of the Armed Forces of Iran (Persian: سازمان جغرافیایی ایران, or Persian: سازمان جغرافیایی نیروهای مسلح) is an Iranian government agency affiliated to the Ministry of Defence and Armed Forces Logistics of Iran, which has been established to prepare quick and accurate access spatial information of the country and other areas required by the Armed Forces of Iran.

[2] Of course, origin of this mapping organization and formation of surveying and cartography branches, was laid in 1921, and in the course of its evolution, it performed responsibilities in accordance with the needs, missions and organizational duties.

Currently, the National Geographical Organization of Iran, along with the National Cartographic Center, conducts affairs related to surveying and preparation and production of spatial information, but matters related to military maps, national borders and geographical services required by the Armed Forces are performed only through the National Geographical Organization of Iran.

[2][3] As the first country in the Middle East, in 1955, the National Geographical Organization of Iran carried out the first analog aerial photography from all over of Iran with a scale of 1: 50,000 and then, using conversion devices (mechanical) and performing engineering steps, was able to prepare and extract topographic maps.

[4] In recent years, the National Geographical Organization of Iran has been able to change the aerial photography system to take the first digital aerial photography with new systems (ULTRA CAM D digital cameras) and done digital aerial photography projects for many cities of Iran.
