Dear all,
we are seeking engaging, relevant, interactive data visualizations of science and technology developments that help people make smarter decisions in their personal and professional lives. The Call for Submissions has been posted at scimaps.org/call<http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fscimaps.org%2Fcall&h=DAQGTzRBrAQFFNnKQ2BBK-p-pVao0ziIOh9TEtqpl5-hbng&enc=AZOlyNz-dt90WmZirT35YILsUqZjDTamZyODcgPHIl8YhywRRs3d2Gh-8I40f9KvyVgDJPJ6vkZOlq5efQgvjWFvhtyyCcuVtriIkTEa0jiTcolHvZm4SyQHE0WuUNKcZWjIo7sacfmQr8EJyfPmAtBvWcMHTJS98x1paJdTKo2oR3-IxZhiqUwDDKDmj0Gr4G-1oBbMQkmj28asWUsaLrzM&s=1> and we welcome your help in spreading the word. This year?s submissions are due by March 1, 2019.
More information on maps and macroscopes included in the exhibit can be found at http://scimaps.org/iteration and http://scimaps.org/iteration/macroscopes interviews with select map and macroscope makers can be found at http://scimaps.org/mapmakers.html. The exhibit currently features 100 framed maps, 16 macroscopes, an award-winning short film, touch screen interactives, and sculptural elements created by more than 250 leading experts in the natural, physical, and social sciences, visual arts, and the humanities. It has been displayed in various formats in 28 countries on six continents and exhibit materials are available in five languages.
Thank you and kind regards,

About the Places & Spaces exhibition: Drawing from across cultures and across scholarly disciplines, Places & Spaces: Mapping Science demonstrates the power of maps to address vital questions about the contours and content of human knowledge. An interdisciplinary and international advisory board chose each one of the works in the Places & Spaces: Mapping Science exhibit as an outstanding example of how visualization can bring patterns in scientific data into focus. The exhibit is curated by the Cyberinfrastructure for Network Science Center at Indiana University. The exhibit has been on display at over 350 venues in 28 countries on 6 continents. It showcases the work of more than 250 mapmakers that hail from 17 different countries. For further information, please visit our website at scimaps.org<http://scimaps.org>.

About the Cyberinfrastructure for Network Science Center (CNS): CNS is a research center at Indiana University?s School of Informatics, Computing, and Engineering in Bloomington, Indiana (http://cns.iu.edu<http://cns.iu.edu/>). For more than 20 years, CNS has played a leading role in the field of data visualization, developing open source tools for the creation of data visualizations, offering the IVMOOC, co-organizing international workshops and conferences, and promoting network science and visualization through international initiatives.

IEEE VIS 2019

============

http://ieeevis.org/

Oct 20-25 2019, Vancouver, Canada


IEEE VIS 2019 is the premier forum for advances in visualization. The
event-packed week brings together researchers and practitioners from
academia, government, and industry to explore their shared interests in
visualization tools, techniques, and technology. We invite you to
participate in IEEE Visual Analytics Science and Technology (VAST), IEEE
Information Visualization (InfoVis), IEEE Scientific Visualization
(SciVis), as well as a wide range of associated events.  Join us this
October in stunning Vancouver, British Columbia to share your research,
insights, experience, and enthusiasm and be part of the visualization
movement!


============

FULL PAPERS

============

Paper abstracts submission (mandatory): March 21, 2019

Paper submission: March 31, 2019


We solicit high quality papers in all areas of visualization including
visual analytics, information visualization, and scientific visualization
in three tracks. For more information, visit:


Overall papers CFP:

http://ieeevis.org/year/2019/info/call-participation/call-for-participation


Topics and paper types for each individual track:

14th IEEE Visual Analytics Science & Technology Conference (VAST):
http://ieeevis.org/year/2019/info/call-participation/vast-paper-types

25th IEEE Information Visualization Conference (InfoVis):
http://ieeevis.org/year/2019/info/call-participation/infovis-paper-types

30th IEEE Scientific Visualization Conference (SciVis):
http://ieeevis.org/year/2019/info/call-participation/scivis-paper-types



============

WORKSHOPS

============

Submission deadline: Feb 15, 2019


We solicit workshops related to all areas of visualization including visual
analytics, information visualization, and scientific visualization. The
workshops venue at IEEE VIS provides an informal and interactive setting
for participants to come together and discuss advanced technical topics in
visualization, involve experts in the field, disseminate work in progress,
and promote new ideas. Submissions consist of a four-page outline of your
proposed workshop.

Contact: work...@ieeevis.org


===============

Doctoral Colloquium

===============

Submission deadline: May 22, 2019


The doctoral colloquium is a forum for PhD Students to present their
proposed dissertation work and receive feedback from leading senior
visualization researchers. We invite contributions from the visual
analytics, information visualization, and scientific visualization student
communities. The DC call is open to all Ph.D. students ? regardless of
whether they are presenting research work at the main conference or not.
Preference will be given to students who will gain most from the
experience, meaning students who are in the process of formulating their
dissertation topic or who have just formulated a dissertation topic.

VIS Restructuring News: Today's Topic: ?Revamped Call-for-Participation?

===============

For new members of the IEEE VIS community, the differences between the
three main conferences (IEEE VAST, IEEE InfoVis, and IEEE SciVis) can be a
bit overwhelming. With that in mind, this year's Papers Chairs have been
hard at work aligning the calls for participation for the three conferences
and making it easier to choose where to submit your work.


A few big changes for 2019 include:

   1.

   We have added more standardized language across all three conference
   calls, making it easier for authors to compare the calls and decide where
   to submit their work.
   2.

   All three conference calls will include new and consistent guidelines
   for open-publication and open-data practices.
   3.

   Authors who are uncertain about which conference to submit to will now
   have the option of deferring that choice to the conference papers chairs,
   who can direct the paper to the pool of reviewers who are best-suited to
   evaluate it.


This year, we will also debut a new unified VIS Short Papers track which
will accept late-breaking and smaller-scale contributions from across the
visualization spectrum (no need to specify VAST, InfoVis, or SciVis).



============

LOCATION

============

The conference will be held in the Vancouver Convention Centre
<https://www.vancouverconventioncentre.com/> at Canada Place in Vancouver,
British Columbia, Canada.
