GEOG-AND-MOD 13 Eighth International Conference on "Geographical Analysis, Urban Modeling, Spatial Statistics

 

Eighth International Conference on"Geographical Analysis,
Urban Modeling, Spatial Statistics"
GEOG-AND-MOD 13

 http://www.unibas.it/utenti/murgante/geog_an_mod_13/index.html

in conjunction with

The 2013 International Conference on Computational
Science and its Applications (ICCSA 2013)

June 24th - June 27th, 2013

International University, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam
http://www.iccsa.org/

Description
During the past decades the main problem in geographical analysis was the lack of spatial data availability. Nowadays the wide diffusion of electronic devices containing geo-referenced information generates a great production of spatial data. Volunteered geographic information activities (e.g. OpenStreetMap, Wikimapia), public initiatives (e.g. Open data, Spatial Data Infrastructures, Geo-portals) and private projects (e.g. Google Earth, Bing Maps, etc.) produced an overabundance of spatial data, which, in many cases, does not help the efficiency of decision processes.
The increase of geographical data availability has not been fully coupled by an increase of knowledge to support spatial decisions.
The inclusion of spatial simulation techniques in recent GIS software favoured the diffusion of these methods, but in several cases led to the mechanism based on which buttons have to pressed without having geography or processes in mind.
Spatial modelling, analytical techniques and geographical analyses are therefore required in order to analyse data and to facilitate the decision process at all levels, with a clear identification of the geographical information needed and reference scale to adopt.
Old geographical issues can find an answer thanks to new methods and instruments, while new issues are developing, challenging the researchers for new solutions.
This Conference aims at providing innovative and original contribution to the ongoing debate on the above mentioned issues and at improving the process of knowledge acquisition, by means of the development of new techniques and methods.

The
 programme committee especially requests high quality submissions on the following (but not limited to) Conference Themes:
Geostatistics and spatial simulation;
Agent-based spatial modelling;
Cellular automata spatial modelling;
Spatial statistical models;
Space-temporal modelling;
Environmental Modelling;
Geovisual analytics, geovisualisation, visual exploratory data analysis;
Visualisation and modelling of track data;
Spatial Optimization;
Interaction Simulation Models;
Data mining, spatial data mining;
Spatial Data Warehouse and Spatial OLAP;
Integration of Spatial OLAP and Spatial data mining;
Spatial Decision Support Systems;
Spatial Multicriteria Decision Analysis;
Spatial Rough Set;
Spatial extension of Fuzzy Set theory;
Ontologies for Spatial Analysis;
Urban modeling;
Applied geography;
Spatial data analysis;
Dynamic modelling;
Simulation, space-time dynamics, visualization and virtual reality.

Each paper will be independently reviewed by 3 programme committee members. Their individual scores will be evaluated by a small sub-committee and result in one of the following final decisions: accepted, or accepted on the condition that suggestions for improvement will be incorporated, or rejected. Notification of this decision will take place on March 2013.
Individuals and groups should submit complete papers (10 to 16 pages).
Accepted contributions will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) volumes

I do not leave a bunch of comments, but I read a few of the comments
on this page "GEOG-AND-MOD 13 Eighth International Conference on "Geographical Analysis, Urban
Modeling, Spatial Statistics". I actually do have a few questions for you if you do not mind. Could it be simply me or does it look as if like a few of these remarks come across like they are left by brain dead folks? :-P And, if you are writing on additional sites, I'd like to follow anything new you have to post. Would you list of all of all your social pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
