Geographical Analysis, Urban Modeling, Spatial Statistics: call for participation

[Beniamino Murgante]

Fourth International Workshop on "Geographical Analysis,
Urban Modeling, Spatial Statistics"
GEOG-AN-MOD 09
  http://www.lisut.org/workshop/GEOG-AN-MOD09/

in conjunction with
 
 
The 2009 International Conference on Computational
Science and its Applications (ICCSA 2009)
June 29th to July 2rd, 2009
Kyung Hee University-Global Campus, Yongin (Korea)

Workshop Description
The growth of Spatial Data Infrastructures, Geo-portals and private sector initiatives (e.g. Google Earth, Microsoft Virtual Earth, etc.) produced an increase of geographical data availability at any scale and worldwide. This growth has not been fully coupled by an increase of knowledge to support spatial decisions. Spatial analytical techniques and geographical analysis and modelling methods are therefore required in order to analyse data and to facilitate the decision process at all levels. Old geographical issues can find an answer thanks to new methods and instruments, while new issues are developing, challenging the researchers for new solutions. This workshop is aimed at contributing to the development of new techniques and methods to improve the process on knowledge acquisition
