The International Symposium on Spatial and Temporal Databases
2011 (SSTD 2011) is the twelfth event of a series of biannual
symposia that discuss new and exciting research in spatial,
temporal and spatio-temporal data management and related
technologies and start setting future research directions.
The primary focus of SSTD symposia is on original results
in the areas of theoretical foundations, design, implementation,
and applications of spatial and temporal database technology.
SSTD also welcomes experience reports from application specialists
and the commercial community that describe lessons learned in
the development, operation, and maintenance of actual systems
in practical and innovative applications. The goal is to exchange
research ideas and results across academia, industry and government
from diverse geographies, and career stages.

Authors are invited to submit original research contributions
focusing on either empirical or theoretical issues related to
spatial, temporal, and spatio-temporal databases. Potential
topics include, but are not limited to:

* Access Methods
* Computational Geometry
* Critical Evaluation of Standards Proposals
* Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery
* Data Quality and Cleaning
* Data Types and Query Languages
* Data Warehousing and Decision Support
* Database Design and Conceptual Modeling
* Experiments, Benchmarks and Performance Evaluation
* Geographic Information Retrieval
* Graph Modeling and Algorithms
* Keyword Search in Databases
* Mobile Computing
* Ontologies and Taxonomies
* Parallel and Distributed Databases
* Privacy, Security and Integrity
* Query Optimization
* Real Applications and Systems
* Recommendation Systems
* Spatial (Road) Networks
* Sensor Networks
* Streams
* Uncertain, Imprecise, and Probabilistic Data
* User Interfaces and Visualization
* Web Information Retrieval
