[Infovis] CFP: GeoVisualization of Dynamics, Movement and Change

[Gennady Andrienko]

Call for papers:

        GeoVisualization of Dynamics, Movement and Change

Workshop at the AGILE 2008 Conference (Girona, Spain, May 2008)
                      and
Special Issue of the Information Visualization journal
         (provisional issue Vol.7 No.3)

The theme for the workshop and this special issue of Information
Visualization is the use of GeoVisualization and GeoVisual Analytics 
approaches for exploring and analysing large data sets with spatial
and temporal components. Original papers are solicited in this area. 
In particular, we encourage innovative papers detailing the
visualization methods supported by and integrated with data mining and 
other computational processing.

The workshop will provide participants with the possibility to present
ongoing and developing work without committing to a full journal paper. 
The journal special issue will provide participants with the
opportunity of reporting their work in a refereed journal. 

Example topics include, but are not limited to, the visualization and
interactive analysis of large data sets representing: 
- individual and group movement behaviours - either in physical or
virtual spaces 
- dynamics of geo-localised sensor data
- spatio-temporal events
- remotely sensed data, multi-scale and multi-temporal
- knowledge construction and reasoning about spatial and temporal
phenomena and processes  
- application of innovative visualization methods to real-life problems
