Call For Papers - CFP

With efforts of previous years, datasets of various types have been produced at global, national, regional, city level. Recently much demand on service and application of SDI has been raised and much attention has been paid to data updating, data harmonization, and geo-spatial cyberinfrastructure that aims at solving the problem of efficiently connecting data, computers, and people over the Internet.

The objective of the workshop is to provide a platform for scholars and professionals in relevant areas to exchange research ideas and interests, to present the newest research results, to discuss the cutting-edge technology, and to promote the development and application of SDI and the international collaboration.

The topics of the workshop will include:

Data Acquisition and Updating

? Creating, populating, accessing, indexing, and analyzing multi-dimensional, multi-scale, spatio-temporal image databases

? algorithms, processes and techniques for automated update, change detection and quality control of 3D geo-spatial databases from imagery and collateral sources

? Theoretical and operational aspects of incremental updating and versioning of vector and raster spatial databases

Database Creation and Maintenance

? Development of multi-level (national, regional and global) geospatial databases with multi-sources

? Database generation for digital topographic and thematic mapping (including orthoimages and digital terrain models)

? strategy and processes for efficient maintenance of multi-dimensional spatial databases at local, regional and global scales

? Synchronization of disparate geospatial resources

? integrating geo-spatial data with environmental and socio-economic data for research, discovery and web services

? Assessment of remote sensing data for generating and visualizing landscape and models

? security and versioning of spatial databases

? Planetary mapping and database generation" in the theme "Database Creating and Maintenance

Smarter Geo-spatial Services and Applications

? technologies for efficient data handling, distributed and federated repositories, visualization, service releasing and applications

? high performance networks and communication for broad access and ″end-to-end″ coordination

? Application and assessment of advanced visualization, virtual reality and multimedia methods for 2-D, 3-D and 4-D mapping tasks in stand-alone, mobile or web-based environments

? Assessment of context-aware visualization and analysis of image data and geodatabases

Standards and Liaison

? open source principles, metadata and open standards of service, system architectures, and geospatial information

? Cooperation and liaison with international efforts (GEOSS, Digital Earth, UNSDI, INSPIRE and GMES), and organizations (GSDI, WGISS, ICA, OGC, W3C, ISO and EuroSDR)

You are welcome to submit abstracts to the workshop via isprswg41nsdi.gov.cn before April 30,2011.
