list of topics

The following non exhaustive list of topics may be used to select paper keywords when submitting abstracts. For convenience they have been grouped into categories of be spatial, geo science, methods and applications, reflecting decreasing levels of abstraction.

This list is an attempt to identify the mostly used topics on GI related fields.

All relevant high quality works, coming from basic R&D, technology, application or user approaches, are eligible for presentation at GIS PLANET 2005.

Topics will be structured around themes into the conference final program.

As GIS PLANET 2005 aims to feature presentations on the cutting edge of GIS, on developments likely to dominate the field over the coming decade, and of a global perspective, some themes have been already selected for particular emphasis.

BE SPATIAL

It is the core level of GIS PLANET 2005, meaning that all spatial related issues are eligible for presentation. As GI is widely used, the list below has uncovered areas for which keywords have to be freely suggested.
