Tenth International Conference on
INDOOR POSITIONING AND INDOOR NAVIGATION
IPIN 2019
(http://ipin2019.isti.cnr.it/)

30 September - 3 October 2019, Pisa, Italy
Technical co-sponsor IEEE

================================================================================

The tenth edition of the International conference on Indoor Positioning and
Indoor Navigation and the sixth IPIN Competition are taking place in Pisa,
Italy. Launched in 2010 in Zurich, Switzerland, IPIN is a unique event entirely
dedicated to indoor localisation, its applications and its development.

Join the 250 expected industrial and academic experts in informatics,
electronics and surveying to address this challenge. Discuss in person
scientific and industrial matters, witness state-of-the-art systems and methods,
participate in the uniquely challenging IPIN competition and enjoy the ancient
town of Pisa and beautiful Tuscany.

IPIN solicits submission of high quality technical papers reporting original
work not previously published, nor currently submitted for consideration
elsewhere. Papers are submitted as one of two types. Regular paper: limited to
8 IEEE format pages, for oral presentation. Work-in-Progress (WiP) paper: from
5 to 8 LNCS format pages, for poster or oral presentation

Paper submission instructions are found at http://ipin2019.isti.cnr.it. Papers
undergo peer reviewing and, once accepted, are included in the conference
proceedings by submitting WiP papers to CEUR-WS and regular papers to IEEE
Xplore Digital Library.

Topics of interest include:

• User requirements
• UI, indoor maps and 3D building models
• Human motion monitoring and modelling
• Robotics and UAV
