"14th AGILE Conference on Geographic Information Science
18‐21 April 2011
Utrecht, The Netherlands



Call for Papers
On behalf of the AGILE council, we would like to invite you to participate at the 14th AGILE International Conference on Geographic Information Science, scheduled to take place in Utrecht, The Netherlands. The program will offer parallel paper presentation sessions, keynote sessions, poster sessions and pre‐conference workshops to share your ideas, explore on‐going research, future developments, including state‐of‐the‐art applications, and to network with the professionals from academia, industry, and government who are interested in promoting GI teaching and research activities among GI laboratories at the European level.
Potential contributors are invited to submit:
Ø Full paper submission (maximum 6000‐word manuscript) of original and unpublished fundamental scientific research. High‐quality scientific submissions will be accepted for presentation at the conference and published in the Springer Lecture Notes on Geoinformation and Cartography. We especially encourage PhD students to submit full papers. Papers must be written in English according to the Springer formatting guidelines.
Note: AGILE 2011 is running a double-blind review process. In preparing your manuscript, do not include any information which could reveal your identity, or that of your co‐authors. The title section of your manuscript should not contain any author names, email addresses, or affiliation status. In the body of your submission, you should eliminate all direct references to your own previous work. That is, avoid phrases such as "this contribution generalizes our results for XYZ". Also, please do not disproportionately cite your own previous work. In other words, make your submission as anonymous as possible. We need your cooperation in our effort to maintain a fair, double-blind reviewing process.
Ø Short paper submission (2000 to 3000‐word manuscript) of original and unpublished research work. High‐quality scientific and strategic (industrial and governmental) submissions will be accepted for presentation at the conference and published in the AGILE proceedings. Papers must be written in English according to the submission template and formatting guidelines.
Ø Poster submission (500 to 1000‐word manuscript) of original scientific and strategic research work. High‐quality submissions will be accepted for poster presentations at the conference and provide the exceptional opportunity to stimulate scientific discussions and exchange novel ideas. Papers must be written in English according to the submission template and formatting guidelines.
Authors’ instructions will be made available after July 1st at www.uu.nl/geo/agile2011. All submissions must be sent electronically via the on‐line conference manager.
