Second Call for Papers – GI_Forum 2015

By

The GI_Forum 2015 provides a platform for dialogue among geospatial minds in an ongoing effort to support the creation of an informed GISociety. Bearing in mind different perspectives from a variety of professions, presentations, workshops and exhibitions will concentrate on innovations in education, science and technologies, in the spatial domain and their possible contribution to a more just, ethical and sustainable society. Prominent keynote speakers will highlight new developments, offer insights into trends and visions, and at the same time be available for our Young Researchers’ Corner for more individualized interaction with young researchers.

 

Themes & Application Fields. GI_Forum solicits contributions in full paper and extended abstract versions in, but not limited to the following topics:

  • Advances in GIScience
  • Innovations in geospatial technologies
  • Monitoring Global Change
  • Citizenship and education
  • Empirical research in education
  • Learning Environments in Primary and Secondary Education

 

This year the GI_Forum will host a number of specialty sessions, tracks and workshops:

  • School on the cloud
  • EO-based support of Humanitarian Operations
  • Geoinformation for Public Health / Health
  • Hydrology GIS
  • technical+human sensors
  • Spatial perspective on transportation modelling

 

GI_Forum is organized by the Department of Geoinformatics – Z_GIS in cooperation with the Austrian Academy of Sciences and runs concurrently with the highly regarded German language conference on Applied Geoinformatics – AGIT. The two symposia share the innovative AGIT EXPO exhibit and stimulating social events.
