(* Apologies for possible cross-posting.) CALL FOR PAPERS 15th International Conference on Information Systems for Crisis Response and Management (ISCRAM 2018) May 20-23, 2018, Rochester, NY, USA https://iscram2018.rit.edu/submissions Track: Geospatial Technologies and Geographic Information Science for Crisis Management (GIS) https://iscram2018.rit.edu/sites/rit.edu.iscram2018/files/ docs/ISCRAM_2018_track_GIS.pdf Deadline for paper submissions: January 21, 2018 * Track Description With disasters and disaster management being an “inherently spatial” problem, geospatial information and technologies have been widely employed for supporting disaster and crisis management. This includes SDSS and GIS architectures, VGI, spatial databases, spatial-temporal methods, as well as geovisual analytics technologies, which have a great potential to build risk map, estimate damaged areas, define evacuation routes, and plan resource distribution. Collaborative platforms like OSM have been also employed to support disaster management (e.g., near real-time mapping). Nevertheless, all these geospatial big data pose new challenges for not only geospatial data visualization, but also data modeling and analysis; existing technologies, methodologies, and approaches now have to deal with data shared in various formats, different velocities, and uncertainties. Furthermore, new issues have been also emerging in urban computing and smart cities for making communities more resilient against disasters. In line with this year’s conference theme, the GIS Track particularly welcomes submissions addressing aspects of geovisualization in disaster risk and crisis research. This includes SDSS, near-real-time mapping, situational awareness, VGI, spatio-temporal modeling, urban computing, and other related aspects. We seek conceptual, theoretical, technological, methodological, empirical contributions, as well as research papers employing different methodologies, e.g., design-oriented research, case Studies, and action research. Solid student contributions are welcome. Track topics are therefore focused on but not limited to the following list. 1. Geospatial data analytics for crisis management 2. Location-based services for crisis management 3. Location-based technologies for crisis management 4. Geospatial ontology for crisis management 5. Geospatial big data in the context of disaster and crisis management 6. Geospatial linked data for crisis management 7. Urban computing and geospatial aspects of smart cities for crisis management 8. Spatial Decision Support Systems for crisis management 9. Remote sensing for crisis management 10. Geospatial intelligence for crisis management 11. Spatial data management for crisis management 12. Spatial data infrastructure for crisis management 13. Geovisual analytics for crisis management 14. Spatial-temporal modeling in disaster and crisis context 15. Crisis mapping and geovisualization 16. Crowdsourcing and VGI in the context disaster and crisis management 17. Spatial analysis of OpenStreetMap (OSM) data for crisis management 18. Spatial analysis of social media messages in the context of crisis management 19. Interoperability aspects regarding disaster-related geodata * Important Dates Submission of Completed Research papers (CoRe): December 3, 2017 Acceptances or otherwise of Completed Research papers (CoRe): January 7, 2018 *Submission of Work in Progress (WiPe) papers, demos and posters: January* *21, 2018.* Acceptances or otherwise of Work in Progress (WiPe) papers, demos and posters: February 18, 2018.
