CALL FOR PAPERS IS NOW CLOSED

GeoWeb 2008 conference organizers are issuing a call for papers for presentations and workshops. The annual conference will take place in Vancouver, Canada from July 21-25th, 2008 with the meetings being held at the Morris J. Wosk Centre for Dialogue. GeoWeb is one of the only annual conferences focusing exclusively on the convergence of GIS and the Internet, and the economic potential associated with the convergence of XML, web services and geographic information systems. The GeoWeb 2008 conference welcomes both public and private organizations to meet, discuss and learn about today’s most innovative geospatial technologies.

The theme for the GeoWeb 2008 conference is Infrastructure: Local to Global. This implies the GeoWeb has a local or community dimension as well as a global one – that the integration of local infrastructures will give rise to a global infrastructure – that global aggregators will drive the creation of local infrastructures. Papers on any aspect of these issues are welcome and key themes of the paper presentations are:

• Global aggregators and Data Communities
• GeoWeb in Security and Defense
• Real time emergency response and environmental security
• Neo-geo, user generated data and the GI professional
• CAD-BIM-GIS-Games Integration – 3D Cityscapes (Worlds Real and Virtual)
• Infrastructure for information – building alongside physical infrastructure
• Municipal SDI in the GeoWeb
• Imaging, Coverages and Information Infrastructures

Conference papers can also be submitted that address these issues in technical terms or in policy/social terms or even combinations of the above.
