CALL FOR PAPERS
 
TeleGeo'99 : FIRST INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON TELEGEOPROCESSING
 
Lyon, France - May 6-7, 1999
 
Scope of the conference: This conference aims at bringing together all
people carrying out research in novel systems in telegeoprocessing,
cross-fertilization between Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and
Telecommunications. Telegeoprocessing can be defined as a new discipline
based on real time spatial databases updated regularly by means of t
elecommunications systems in order to support online decision-making.
Overall attention will be given to systems based on Global Positioning
Systems (GPS) and all other technologies for sending data from sensors
to GIS systems by means of wireless communications. Among others, we are
especially looking for papers dealing with:
 
- Real time GIS, especially based on GPS
- Real time spatial data structures
- Real time GIS indexing
- Embarked GIS
- Online Spatial Decision Support System
- CASE tools for telegeoprocessing
- Visual languages and user interfaces
- Active hypermaps
- Sensors and radio-communications
- Multi-source fusion especially for updating
- Parallel and distributed GIS
- Interoperability in telegeoprocessing
- Geographic data interchange standards
- GIS and internet working
- Visualization and huge synoptics design
- Animated cartography
- Real time graphics semiology
- Groupware and GIS (CSCW)
- Client-server architecture for GIS
- GIS and Java
- Distributed spatial objects
- Spatial knowledge engineering
- Systems for spatial reasoning
- Byzantine situations
 
Among novel applications, overall attention will be paid to domains such as:
 
- Urban planning
- Environmental planning
- Risk prevention
- Traffic management
- Geological information systems
- Fleet management
 
This conference will be organized under the aegis of
 
- University of Southwestern Louisiana, USA
- National Institute for Applied Sciences (INSA), Lyon, France
- Claude Bernard University of Lyon, France
- University of Versailles-Saint Quentin, France
- Hassan II University of Mohammedia, Morocco
