The joint international conference of ISEH 2016 (The 3rd International Symposium on Environment and Health), ISEG 2016 (The 10th International Symposium on Environmental Geochemistry) 2016 and Geoinformatics 2016 (The 24th International Conference on Geoinformatics) provides a historical opportunity for international experts working in several closely related areas of environment, health, geographical information system (GIS) and agriculture, to meet and share the latest understanding of the ever growing challenges between human and our changing environment. Ø ISEH is an internationally leading conference series in Environment and Health held once every two years. Ø ISEG is an internationally leading symposium on environmental geochemistry held once every three years. Ø Geoinformatics is the annual conference of the International Association of Chinese Professionals in Geographic Information Sciences (CPGIS). The conference venue is the campus of NUI, Galway, within walking distance of Galway’s city centre. Galway is a popular tourist destination, and ranked No. 1 friendliest city in the world in a recent survey. Ireland is ranked No. 1 in the good country list, and Ireland is named as a best travel destination. The joint international conference is organized by NUI Galway (Ryan Institute GIS Centre and School of Geography and Archaeology) and CPGIS.
