Make Your Vision Heard

Please note: the Call for Papers for this event is now closed. Thank you for your submissions, and check back soon for program details.

We are all lobbying for an operational and global spatial data infrastructure. The Geoweb offers an immediate solution to redundant data, expensive data integration, expensive or inefficient data distribution capabilities. More importantly, the GeoWeb unlocks a world of new technologies, markets and improved decision-making. This is a pivotal technological shift that will not only change the industry, but moreover, the way we use geospatial information in our everyday lives. We invite you to take a leadership role in this important technological shift by submitting your abstract to present at GeoWeb 2007.

Details

GeoWeb 2007’s principal theme, “From Mashups to Infrastructure”, reflects the breadth, the evolution and the growing maturity of the GeoWeb. This theme acknowledges the highly visible, consumer applications that helped spawn the GeoWeb while emphasizing that the GeoWeb is increasingly playing a meaningful role in mainstream, mission-critical applications. As such, the GeoWeb is now a key component in critical decision making across a broad spectrum of market segments and application domains.

Conference papers will reflect topics such as, Web services, service-oriented architecture and business and policy issues that are relevant in the context of the GeoWeb. Connecting these topics to working solutions in specific, market segments is a key objective of this years conference program. As such, connections between the topics above and specific market or domain solutions should be evident in the papers themselves. Market segments of particular interest include:

There will be one or more sessions devoted to technology innovations in the past year that impact the GeoWeb.

Prospective speakers should submit abstracts no longer than 200 words and include the presentation title, the name of the presenter or presenters, the presenting organization and their preferred theme.
