AIS Colleagues,

Consider submitting to the SIGGIS Minitrack, Locational Big Data, Analytics and the Sharing Economy

AMCIS 2017, Boston August 10-12, 2017

SIGGIS Minitrack on Locational Big Data and Analytics: Implications for the Sharing Economy

The mini-track provides a research forum on varied aspects of GIS for business intelligence, location-based analytics, knowledge management, and spatial data management. In concert with the AMCIS theme of advancing MIS research, contributions related to location for the sharing economy are encouraged, e.g. firms such as Uber, Lyft, and Airbnb depend on enterprise-wide spatial software. Topics include locational aspects of the sharing economy, spatial big data, spatial decision support, spatial knowledge management, cloud-based GIS, spatial crowdsourcing, volunteered geographic information (VGI), spatial workforce development, managerial concerns, privacy, security, ethical aspects concerning the sharing economy, mobile location-based applications, location-based theory, and emerging areas of GIS and location analytics. The mini-track encourages manuscript submissions on theory, methodology, applications, behavioral studies, case studies, and emerging areas with particular encouragement for the sharing economy.

Spatial technologies have been undergoing a major transformation based on new and emerging geospatial technologies including management of the sharing economy, 3-D modeling, LIDAR, unmanned spatial data collection, space-time, and virtual reality of place. The relevance to research is to build up greater knowledge of the geo-spatial aspects of decision-making, management, and sharing economy, and to develop theory and applications, sometimes building on well-known concepts in the Decision Support Systems, Analytics and MIS fields. GIS and spatial technologies are growing rapidly and becoming essential in business and government.

As the organizer of this mini-track, SIGGIS encourages and invites papers on the aforementioned topics addressing important spatial questions in MIS, business, economy, and society. More detailed information is available at http://siggis.wikispaces.com/.
