Students at all academic levels are invited to submit original research on all topics in the field of remote sensing, GIS, and/or cartography. An illustrated paper is a poster accompanied by a short (3-5 minute) oral summary of the research problem, data, methods, and findings. Illustrated papers must be based upon original work completed as an undergraduate or graduate student and must be completed entirely by the applicant; however, advisors can be co-authors. Students selected as finalists will be placed in a special session at the annual meeting. Awards will be determined immediately following the competition sessions. The deadline for abstract submission to this competition is October 4, 2005. Submission guidelines are posted on the RSSG website at www.aagrssg.org.
