- CALL FOR PAPERS
-
- Special Topics Issue of _JASIS_ on Spatial Information Systems
- JASIS = Journal of the American Society for Information Science
-
- Spatial information systems include geographic information systems
- (GIS), remote-sensing (RS), global positioning systems (GPS), automated
- manufacturing facilities management (AM/FM), and advanced navigational
- systems. These have become a billion dollar a year industry just in
- the U.S. Such systems are having major impacts in the way individuals,
- governments, not-for-profit and for-profit corporations collect, use,
- and monitor spatial information.
-
- Papers are solicited on topics on particular aspects of the
- representation, storage, retrieval, cognitive processing, or
- management of spatial information. Articles should represent
- original research (theoretical or empirical), focusing upon a
- particular aspect of this broad and growing interdisciplinary domain.
-
- Topics of interest include:
- Knowledge representation for spatial data
- Research in storage and retrieval of spatial data
- Developments in telecommunication and network use of spatial data
- Research in combining spatial and non-spatial data for resolving
- personal information needs (e.g., in-car navigation
- or recreational uses)
- Empirical and theoretical work related to user interfaces and
- query languages for spatial data
- Empirical work in cognitive metaphors for navigation that
- apply human wayfinding abilities
- Developments in 3D, multimedia GIS, and animation for spatial data
- Spatial decision support tools or spatial groupware issues
- Research and developments in standards for spatial data
- Research in the role of spatial data in environmental issues
- Research related to the storage, retrieval, management, and
- cognitive behavior in using spatial information
-
- Four copies of the manuscript should be sent to:
- Dr. Myke Gluck
- School of Library and Information Studies
- R-106, 101 Louis Shores Building
- Florida State University
- Tallahassee, FL 32306-2048
-
- (904) 644-5775 Voice
- (904) 644-9763 Fax
- Email: mgluck@LIS.FSU.EDU
-
- The deadline for accepting manuscripts for consideration for
- publication is August 31, 1993. All manuscripts will be reviewed
- by a select panel of referees, and those accepted will be published
- in a special issue of the _Journal of the American Society for
- Information Science_ (JASIS).
-
- Of course, original artwork and a signed copy of the copyright
- release form will be required for all accepted papers.
-
- [Apologies to those who receive multiple copies of this post]
-
- Please fell free to forward to other individuals and lists.
