Call for Papers
5th ACM Workshop on
Geographic Information Systems
Las Vegas, Nevada, USA
November 13-14, 1997
Scope of the conference:
The scope of this conference will be to regroup all people carrying
out researches in novel systems based on spatial data and
knowledge. The emphasis will be essentially targeted to the
development of generic principles and systems in computing based on
those applications. For cross-fertilizations and synergies between
several applications can help to develop new computing
knowledge. Among others, we are especially looking for papers dealing
with:
- Embarked GIS
- Spatial Decision Support System
- CASE tools for geomatics
- Visual languages and user interfaces
- Real time GIS, especially based on GPS
- Hypermaps and interactive mapping
- Visualization and huge synoptics design
- Computer Graphics semiology
- Multi-source fusion especially for updating
- Quality control and re-engineering
- Parallel and distributed GIS
- Knowledge discovery and mining
- GIS meta data
- Multi-media GIS
- Digital libraries for GIS
- Virtual reality in GIS
- Interoperability among heterogeneous GIS
- Geographic data interchange standards
- GIS and internet working
- Client-server architecture for GIS
- GIS and cooperative work (CSCW)
- Multidatabase GIS
- GIS and Java
- Distributed spatial objects
- Spatial knowledge engineering
- Systems for spatial reasoning
- Systems for spatial negotiation
- Spatial data warehousing and indexing
- 3D GIS
- etc.
Among novel applications, attention will overall be paid to domains
such as:
- risk prevention
- earth observation
- urban and environmental planning
- marine cartography
- transportation
- geomarketing
- geological information systems
- extraterrestrial mapping
- etc.
