Call for Papers
    5th International Workshop on
    Web and Wireless Geographical Information Systems
    W2GIS 2005

http://lbd.epfl.ch/e/conferences/w2gis05

December 15 ~ 16, 2005, Lausanne, Switzerland

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 workshop is intended to provide an up-to-date review of advances on
recent development of Web and Wireless Geographical Information 
Systems (W2GIS).
This workshop follows the successful 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 editions, held in
Kyoto, Singapore, Rome and Seoul respectively.

We invite submissions that address both theoretical and technical 
issues of W2GIS.
Reports on implementations are particularly welcome.  Suggested topics include,
but are not limited to as long as they address issues related to W2GIS:

  - Conceptual and logical models for W2GIS
  - Data management and data retrieval methods
  - Geographical search engines and web services
  - Digital geographical libraries
  - W2GIS query languages and interfaces
  - 2D and 3D information visualization
  - Exploratory cartography and interfaces
  - W2GIS data mining
  - W2GIS security
  - W2GIS applications and prototypes
  - Location-based services
  - Peer-to-peer computing
  - Cyber-geography
  - Semantic geo-spatial web
  - Mobile GIS
  - Wireless GIS
  - Telematics and GIS Applications
  - Ubiquitous W2GIS
  - W2GIS personalization
  - Wayfinding

Papers must be written in English. Each paper should be limited to 
5000 words and
submitted via http://lbd.epfl.ch/e/conferences/w2gis05 in PDF file. 
Each paper must
include a short abstract and a list of keywords indicating subject 
classification.
The full names and addresses of the authors should be printed only on 
the title page.
The author who is the contact person should be identified as such. 
Acceptance of a
paper means an obligation for at least one of the authors to attend 
the conference
and present the paper. Authors of best/some selected papers will be 
invited to submit
an extended version of their papers for inclusion in World Wide Web Journal or
International Journal of Web Emerging Technology.

Important Dates:
  - July 4, 2005 - Full paper submission
  - September 12, 2005 - Notification of paper acceptance
  - October 16, 2005 (hard deadline) - Camera-Ready copy due
