NSF Workshop on Geospatial Data Science in the Era of Big Data and CyberGIS
July 25 - 26, 2016
and
Third International Conference on CyberGIS and Geospatial Data Science
July 26 - 28, 2016
at the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA), Urbana, Illinois, USA
The week will begin with a NSF-funded Workshop on Geospatial Data Science on Monday and Tuesday. This workshop aims to discuss innovative big data capabilities for novel geospatial
applications, demonstrate advanced cyberinfrastructure and cutting-edge computing tools for scalable cyberGIS analytics and geospatial discovery, identify requirements for spatial data synthesis from representative science drivers, and formulate a set of core
questions and problems in geospatial data science toward a community-driven research roadmap.
Then, join us for the Third International Conference on CyberGIS and Geospatial Data Science (CyberGIS’16) on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. This conference is built on the very
successful
CyberGIS’12 and
CyberGIS’14, and will provide an exciting forum bringing together the world’s foremost educators, practitioners, and researchers to share their expertise and knowledge in cyberGIS, geospatial data science, and related
fields. Hands-on cyberGIS training opportunities will be available for conference attendees on Tuesday.
Both events are hosted by the CyberGIS Center for Advanced Digital and Spatial Studies and NCSA at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Calls for papers will be available
soon on the event websites:
