--------------------------------------------- 16th ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems (ACM GIS 2008)
Call for Papers ---------------------------------------------
November 5-7, 2008 Irvine, CA, USA http://acmgis08.cs.umn.edu
Corporate Sponsorship by ESRI Microsoft Oak Ridge National Laboratory
The ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems 2008 (ACM GIS 2008) is the sixteenth event of a series of symposia and workshops that began in 1993 with the aim of bringing together researchers, developers, users, and practitioners carrying out research and development in novel systems based on geo-spatial data and knowledge, and fostering interdisciplinary discussions and research in all aspects of geographic information systems. The conference provides a forum for original research contributions covering all conceptual, design, and implementation aspects of GIS ranging from applications, user interface considerations, and visualization down to storage management and indexing issues. This year's conference builds on last year's conference great success and on being the premier annual conference of the newly formed ACM Special Interest Group on Spatial Information (ACM SIGSPATIAL). Researchers, students, and practitioners are invited to submit their contributions to this year's ACM GIS.
