Bridging the Gap between Geospatial Theory and Technology

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

ISPRS TC II Midterm Symposium is held every four years in between two consecutive ISPRS Congresses. The aim of midterm symposiums is to bring together academics and professionals from the international community of spatial information sciences and engineering to present the latest research achievements and technological developments in the field. This year's symposium was held in Toronto, Canada from October 6–8, 2014. The topics and the theme on "Building Connections in GISciences for Future" were set to fulfil the goal of bridging the gap between geospatial theory and technology. Selected papers from the 2015 ISPRS TC II Midterm Symposium will be invited to submit a substantially extended manuscript for consideration for publication in this Special Issue. General submissions on the Special Issue topic will be also accepted. Submissions should have a focus on GIS systems analysis, design and technological implementation of new, cutting-edge geospatial concepts and theory.

Topics of interest include:
- Geospatial computation, geo-design and geospatial simulation
- Geographical decision support systems and decision theory
- GIS systems analysis, design and implementation
- Web-based methods and systems for spatial information dissemination
- GIS and applications (social, physical, environmental and health)

Submission

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are refereed through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information is an international peer-reviewed Open Access quarterly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. English correction and/or formatting fees of 250 CHF (Swiss Francs) will be charged in certain cases for those articles accepted for publication that require extensive additional formatting and/or English corrections.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue

  • Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
  • Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
  • Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
  • External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
  • e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
