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;

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
