Academic Track

[ See also the overall conference program ]


Following established tradition, FOSS4G-Europe organizes an academic track which will run single-track over one day. FOSS4G-Europe invites original research contributions on all aspects of open-source geo software and its application, and particularly encourage submissions focusing on the special topics INSPIRE and Big Data. All types of papers are welcome, such as on results achieved, case studies, work in progress, and demos. We discourage, however, mere presentations of technology or use cases without properly justifying originality against the scientific state of the art and particular outcomes of the work. All submissions will be assessed by the Program Committee on their overall quality (such as originality and clarity) and relevance.

In collaboration with the following high-ranking journals,outstanding contributions will be published in a special issue of high-impact journals; we have made arrangement with the following journals:
