Call for Papers

GIScience 2002
Second International Conference on Geographic Information Science

Boulder, Colorado, USA
September 26-28, 2002

http://www.giscience.org

GIScience 2002 is the follow-up meeting to the highly successful
GIScience 2000 conference with over 300 researchers attending.
GIScience 2002 will again bring together scientists from academia,
industry, and government to analyze progress and to explore new
research directions. It will focus on emerging topics and basic
research findings across all sectors of geographic information
science. The conference program aims to attract leading GIScience
researchers from all fields to reflect the interdisciplinary breadth
of GIScience, including cognitive science, computer science,
engineering, geography, information science, mathematics, philosophy,
psychology, social science, and statistics.

We solicit research papers in all areas of geographic information
science. Since GIScience 2002 focuses on advances in the fundamentals
of Geographic Information Science, submission of GIS application
papers is discouraged. To accommodate the variety of papers and
presentations that result from an interdisciplinary melting pot,
GIScience 2002 will give authors choices about the type of submission
they want to make.

* Full papers, consisting of 5,000-word manuscripts, will be
thoroughly reviewed. Manuscripts must describe original work that has
not been published before nor is currently under review elsewhere.
Papers must be written in English, in 12-point type, and
double-spaced. All submissions will be reviewed by three members of
the international program committee, and high-quality submissions
will be accepted for presentation at the conference and will be
published by an international publisher as a refereed conference
proceedings. Deadline for submission of full papers: April 1, 2002.

* Extended abstracts of 500-1000 words, describing work in progress,
will be screened by the program committee, and those submissions
selected will be published in a booklet and be presented at the
conference. Extended abstracts must be written in English, in
12-point type, and double-spaced. Deadline for submission of extended
abstracts: June 3, 2002.

All submissions (full papers and extended abstracts) must be sent
electronically to papers at giscience.org. Material can be submitted as
PDF files or Microsoft Word files.
