GeoComputation 2009

The GeoComputation 2009 conference will be hosted at the School of Biological, Earth and Environmental Sciences at the University of New South Wales, Sydney, Australia. The conference continues a successful series of meetings previously held in the UK, New Zealand, Australia, USA and Ireland.

Call for Papers

Contributions are invited on all themes in the field of geocomputation and should describe original and unpublished research. Reports of innovative geocomputational applications in ecological, environmental, geographical, health, socioeconomic and urban studies as well as in new problem domains are also welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

• new geocomputational algorithms and architectures 
• spatio-temporal data mining and knowledge discovery 
• evolutionary computing for spatial applications 
• geographical visualisation and geovisual analytics 
• geostatistics and spatial simulation 
• agent-based spatial modelling 
• cellular automata spatial modelling 
• neural networks and fuzzy modelling 
• spatial network modelling and topological analysis 
• temporal modelling 
• location-based services 
• spatial sensors 
• accuracy and uncertainty of geocomputational models 
• applications in environmental and ecological modelling 
• applications in health and medical informatics 
• applications in urban studies, criminology and transportation modelling 

The submission deadline is 30 June 2009. Authors will be notified of acceptance/rejection in the end of August 2009.
