HICSS-55 CALL FOR PAPERS LOCATION ANALYTICS FOR SYSTEM SCIENCES
RESEARCH
MINITRACK HICSS-55 (Jan 4-7, 2022)
*Title of Mini-Track: GIS, Industry 4.0, and Sustainability*
*Track: Location Intelligence*
*Mini-Track Description:*
This mini-track provides a research forum aiming to discuss the
varied
facets of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for Industry 4.0
and
sustainability. The fourth Industrial Revolution is characterized
by
emerging technologies, such as AI, IoT, blockchain, and the Cloud,
which
can improve economic conditions and reduce negative societal
impacts.
Industry trends increasingly focus on sustainable business
practices,
responsiveness to climate change, and related social and
environmental
issues. GIS (or location analytics) is one of the key technologies
of
Industry 4.0. IoT generates an enormous amount of data, a big
portion of
which is geospatial data that must be stored in the Cloud and
analyzed in
real time for better decision-making and prediction. Location data
and
spatial features embedded in such emerging technologies often
facilitate
and accelerate technological advancements in connected vehicles,
connected
homes, smart cities, and Industrial IoT, which are bound to create
not just
extensive opportunities for economic gains, but also a positive
externality
of ecological sustainability.
This mini-track solicits and invites completed research papers
from both
academics and practitioners across the following topics, but not
limited
to:
1. GIS and Industry 4.0,
2. GIS and environmental sustainability,
3. GIS and smart cities,
4. GIS, government, and NGOs,
5. Societal issues with big spatial data,
6. Spatial aspects of the sharing economy,
7. Mobile location-based applications,
8. Cloud-based or web-based GIS concepts and applications,
9. Spatial crowdsourcing,
*Mini-Track Co-Chairs:*
