Hi,
SIGGIS is the new AIS Special Interest Group on Geographic Information
Systems and Spatial Business Intelligence. If you have an interest in
this emerging area of research, join us:
1. Join the SIG through the AIS website
2. Join the Listserv by sending a blank email with the subject
“subscribe” to:
siggis-request(a)lists.aisnet.org <mailto:siggis-request@lists.aisnet.org>
3. Meet with us at our SIG sponsored events at AMCIS 2011:
a. We will have our first business meeting on Friday, August 5 at
6pm. For those attending AMCIS, there should be a way to indicate your
attendance on the during the registration process (or just drop by).
b. Look for a Mini-track on Spatial Business Intelligence – there
are two papers in the track. One of our goals will be to broaden and
encourage research on spatial related topics (there are many).
c. There will be SIG sponsored panel titled /Research Directions
in Spatial Business Intelligence: Place, Space, and Decision Support/ on
Saturday, August 6. The SIGGIS panel members are Jim Pick (University
of Redlands), Brian Mennecke (Iowa State), Namchul Shin (Pace
University). We are working on expanding the panel with representatives
from the major vendors in this area.
d. I’ll be giving an introductory hands-on workshop on GIS (bring a
laptop) 1:30pm-5:00pm on Friday, August 4. There should be a way to
register during the AMCIS registration process or on sight at the conference
We are looking forward to seeing you in Detroit next month.
Best regards,
Dan
