GI_Forum 2010 First Call for Papers
http://www.gi-forum.org/
The Geoinformatics Forum Salzburg (GI_Forum) is scheduled for July 6-9, 2010,
at the University of Salzburg, Austria.
Audience. GI_Forum focuses on an international audience that shares an interest
in Applied Geoinformatics. This Call for Papers aims at researchers who design,
develop and apply advanced methods and techniques of Geoinformatics to a broad
range of application domains.
Themes & Application Fields. GI_Forum solicits contributions on emerging
topics and research outcomes related to current Geoinformatics methodology, and
especially wishes to attract submissions pertaining to the following topics:
• Advances in Geovisualization and Cartography (in cooperation with
InterCarto-InterGIS)
• Spatial Data Infrastructure
• Mobile GIS and Location Based Services
• Digital Terrain Representation and Analysis
• Digital Cities and Urban Sustainability Digital Cities are meant to provide a
collaborative platform based on modelling of existing and planned urban
infrastructure. This concept supports applications of a wide scale range, from
the whole city, a city quarter, or a group of buildings down to a single
building. We welcome contributions focused on applications as well as
conceptual views.
• Global Change: Monitoring and Modelling “Global change” – a short formula for
a multitude of anticipated shifts in societal and environmental domains due to
strong global drivers such as climate change – calls for monitoring and
modelling techniques to better understand regional implications and potential
dynamics of such changes in a geospatial manner. International programmes and
visions (GEO, GMES, SEIS, …) envisage unified systems based on quality
standards for data, products and services to establish optimized observation
and forecasting capacity within Europe, and globally.
• Vulnerability: Spatial Assessment and Analysis This topic is expected to
highlight different developed and currently investigated methodologies to
spatially assess vulnerability. It will specifically address the issue of
vulnerability assessment, independent from conceptual discussions. The focus
will be on the review and discussion of different methods of GIScience employed
to assess, quantify and represent vulnerability as integrated spatial
phenomena. Within a workshop session, current achievements and future research
challenges will be identified and formulated.
• Learning with Geoinformation We encourage contributions discussing various
issues related to geoinformation in education. In 2010 a special focus is put
on the concept of 'Spatial Citizenship' and the role of GI-based learning in
developing the relevant competences. The bilingual conference on Learning with
Geoinformation will host such contributions in sessions partially shared with
GI_Forum. Please refer to the separate CFP (www.gi-forum.org/learning). These
contributions will be published in separate proceedings.
Submission: Types & Deadlines. GI_Forum 2010 gives authors choices about
the type of submission they want to make in order to accommodate a variety of
interdisciplinary contributions. Submissions are expected in English language
according to the formatting guidelines published on the conference website.
• Deadline for submission of full papers for oral presentation and publication
in the conference proceedings; and extended abstracts for discussion sessions:
February 1, 2010.
• Late deadline for submission of extended abstracts for poster presentation:
June 7, 2010.
We will accept online submissions only, starting from December 2009 at
http://www.gi-forum.org/
Publication. Accepted full paper submissions will be published by Wichmann
Verlag as a book. Extended abstracts for discussion sessions will be
acknowledged in the proceedings.
We are looking forward to your contribution!

Title : 9th International Workshop Spatial Econometrics and Statistics
Date : 24th and 25th of June 2010
Link : : http://www.univ-orleans.fr/leo/SEW2010
Contact details : This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Description :
The 9th edition of the Spatial Econometrics and Statistics
International Workshop is organized in Orléans by the LEO (Laboratoire
d’Economie d’Orléans) at the Department of Law, Economics and
Management of the Université d’Orléans. This edition follows previous
workshops held in France: Besançon (2009), Paris (2008), Dijon (2007),
Grenoble (2006), Toulouse (2005), Strasbourg (2004), Dijon (2003) and
Toulouse (2002).
The aim of the workshop is to bring together economists,
econometricians, statisticians, and geographers to discuss the
state–of–the–art and future challenges as well as opportunities in the
fields of spatial econometrics and statistics. This workshop also aims
to reinforce and encourage exchanges between senior and junior
researchers involved in spatial statistics and econometrics.
Invited speakers: Giuseppe Arbia (University G. d’Annunzio, Italy –
President of the Spatial Econometrics Association), Lung-Fei Lee (Ohio
State University, USA) et James LeSage (Texas State University, USA).
Theoretical and applied studies with methodological advances in spatial
econometrics and statistics are welcome. We especially encourage
submission by junior researchers.
The following IGU Commissions, 'Applied Geography', 'GIScience', 'Dynamics of economic spaces' and 'Modelling geographical systems' are running a joint workshop on 'Applied GIS and spatial modelling' to be held at the Hilton Hotel, in Leeds, UK, May 29th-June 1st 2013.
