GIScience 2018

10th International Conference on Geographic Information Science 

PLACE&TIME

Melbourne, Australia, 28-31 August 2018 

SYNOPSIS

Hosted at RMIT University in collaboration with the University of Melbourne, GIScience 2018, the flagship conference in the field of geographic information science continues the highly successful conference series which started in 2000.

The conference regularly brings together more than 300 international participants from academia, industry, and government to discuss and advance the state-of-the-art in geographic information science. August 28, 2018 is dedicated to Workshops and Tutorials. The main conference takes place from August 29 to 31, 2018, and consists of two refereed paper tracks: Full papers and short papers/extended abstracts. This second track allows authors to choose between published short papers and unpublished extended abstracts.

The GIScience conference series has always had a focus on fundamental research themes and questions. Papers advancing the field methodologically or theoretically are encouraged; papers strictly dealing with applications are discouraged. GIScience 2018 welcomes papers and proposals covering emerging topics and fundamental research findings across all sectors of geographic information science, including (but not limited to) the role of geographic information in geography, computer science, engineering, information science, linguistics, mathematics, cognitive science, philosophy, psychology, social science, and geostatistics.

2. INFORMATION FOR AUTHORS

Full Paper Track

Full papers will be thoroughly reviewed by at least three members of the international program committee. High-quality submissions will be accepted for presentation at the conference and published in LIPIcs, the Leibniz International Proceedings in Informatics series. Manuscripts must describe original work that has neither been published before, nor is currently under review elsewhere. Papers must be written in English and should not exceed fifteen pages (including title, figures, and references) in the required layout.

Short Paper and Extended Abstract Track

Short papers and extended abstracts on work in progress are both of the same format, undergo the same reviewing process, and are both presented at the conference. Accepted papers in this track will be selected for either oral or poster presentation.

The authors choose their category: If a submission to this track is accepted, then a short paper will be published in the LIPIcs conference proceedings, while an extended abstract will not be formally published in the proceedings. Short papers and extended abstracts must be written in English and should not exceed six pages (including title, figures, and references) in the requested LIPIcs layout. In addition, each submission must have a subtitle, which is either Short Paper or Extended Abstract. Both short papers and extended abstracts will be reviewed by at least three members of the international program committee.
