volks, Below is the call for papers for the "First International Workshop on Location and the Web in Conjunction with the WWW 2008 Conference." I hope some of you will consider submitting papers and boosting the OSGeo presence. Disclaimer: I am one of the organizers.
http://medien.informatik.uni-oldenburg.de/LocWeb2008/index.html Scope The First International Workshop on Location and the Web (LocWeb 2008) focuses on all the geospatial aspects that are related to the Web. A location-aware Web will spawn network effects among geo-referenced data models and services, improving interoperability and interaction by providing a well-defined location concept for the Web. We encourage submissions that will enable mobile search, search in automotive, special local search engines in specialized fields. The workshop will look at the theme of location and the Web from a macro-level, interdisciplinary perspective. In recent years, the topic of location appears in many communities and is achieving great attention - user-generated content, location-related multimedia Web content, Web scale geo-content mining, and mobile search are only some of these developments. -- Puneet Kishor _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
