Just passing this announcement along:
-------------------------------------------------------
The Second ICA Workshop on Geospatial Analysis and Modeling
Spatial Structure and Dynamics of Urban Environments
12-13 July 2007, Athens, GA, USA
www.ggy.uga.edu/people/fac...rkshop2007/
Background and Scope:
The International Cartographic Association (ICA) workshop series aims to bring together researchers from academia and industry to present leading edge research findings, exchange ideas, and stimulate new research efforts around geospatial analysis and modeling. Following the first workshop held in Vienna, Austria in July 2006, the Department of Geography at the University of Georgia and the ICA Working Group on Geospatial Analysis and Modeling are delighted to announce the second in the workshop series.
The upcoming workshop focuses particularly on the spatial dimensions of urban systems. Urban environments are central to human lives and activities, and they are changing dramatically due to the continuous trend of urbanization. Modern cites are facing a series of problems such as increasing traffic congestion and urban sprawl, which need coordinated research to address. The increasing availability of movement information collected through mobile devices also stimulates more research on urban environments at various levels of spatial granularity.
We solicit papers about formal models, methods, theories, and their applications to spatial problems that involve spatial structures and dynamics of urban environments.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Agent-based modeling and simulation
* Cellular automata modeling
* Small world modeling and topological analysis
* Urban land use change and transportation modeling
* Real time city and location-based services
* Time geography and temporal modeling
* Urban morphology and structural analysis
* Virtual city and artificial life
* Spatio-temporal data mining
Submission:
All manuscripts should be in length of about 5000 - 6000 words, written in English, single column, and single-spaced with figures and tables within the text. The manuscripts should contain author affiliations and emails, abstract of about 300 words, and up to five keywords. We prefer Microsoft Word format. Please address all correspondence about the workshop to xyao@uga.edu or bin.jiang@polyu.edu.hk.
