15th International Symposium on Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems (W2GIS 2017)

Shanghai,China

May 8-9,2017

Call For Papers

The recent advances on the developments of Wireless and Internet technologies have generated increasing interest in the diffusion and processing of geo-referenced data. Wireless and Internet devices also offer new ways of accessing and analyzing geo-spatial information. Consequently, new challenges and opportunities have been provided to the GIS research community.

This Symposium is intended to provide an up-to-date review of advances in recent development of Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems (W2GIS). It is the 15th in a series of successful events beginning with Kyoto 2001, and mostly alternating locations between East Asia and Europe, with the most recent event held in Grenoble, France. We invite submissions that address both theoretical and technical issues of W2GIS. Reports on implementations are particularly welcome.
