The ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances
in Geographic Information Systems 2008 (ACM GIS 2008) is the
sixteenth event of a series of symposia and workshops that began
in 1993 with the aim of bringing together researchers, developers,
users, and practitioners carrying out research and development in
novel systems based on geo-spatial data and knowledge, and fostering
interdisciplinary discussions and research in all aspects of geographic
information systems. The conference provides a forum for original
research contributions covering all conceptual, design, and
implementation aspects of GIS ranging from applications, user
interface considerations, and visualization down to storage
management and indexing issues. This year's conference builds
on last year's conference great success and on being the premier
annual conference of the newly formed ACM Special Interest
Group on Spatial Information (ACM SIGSPATIAL). Researchers,
students, and practitioners are invited to submit their contributions
to this year's ACM GIS.
