Call for Papers: GIScience 2020
Poznań, Poland, September 15-18, 2020
Deadlines: Full papers due March 16, 2020; Short papers due May 25, 2020
The 11th International Conference on Geographic Information Science will be held in Poznań, Poland, 15-18 September 2020. Hosted by Adam Mickiewicz University, GIScience 2020 continues the long tradition of the series as a flagship conference for researchers in geographic information science and related disciplines that are interested in spatial and temporal information.
The biennial conference series typically attracts over 300 international participants from academia, industry, and government to advance the state-of-the-art in geographic information science. The first conference day (September 15, 2020) will be dedicated to workshops and tutorials, while the main conference will be taking place on September 16-18, 2020. The conference offers two separate paper tracks, one for full papers and the other for short papers, both of which will undergo full peer-review. Authors of accepted papers will be given the opportunity to present their work at the conference in an oral presentation or as a poster.
The GIScience conference series is deeply interdisciplinary with contributions frequently involving domains such as geography, earth science, cognitive science, information science, computer science, linguistics, mathematics, philosophy, life sciences, and social science. It attracts contributions from experts in geo-visualization, geographic information retrieval, geostatistics, geo-semantics, geosimulation, spatial optimization, transportation, computational geometry, and data structures. Topics of interest are not restricted to the geo-spatial realm but involve spatial and temporal information more broadly.
Since 2018, GIScience proceedings are published in LIPIcs, the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics series (https://www.dagstuhl.de/en/publications/lipics). LIPIcs volumes are peer-reviewed and published according to the principle of open access, i.e., they are available online and free of charge. Each article is published under a Creative Commons CC BY license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/), where the authors retain their copyright. Also, each article is assigned a DOI and a URN. The digital archiving of each volume is done in cooperation with the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek/German National Library. A number of other high-standing international conferences have already made the move to LIPIcs.
