ICSDM2017 – Third International Conference on Spatial Data Mining and Geographical Knowledge Services

Sep. ‍21-22‍, 2017

East Lake International Conference Center, Wuhan, Hubei, China

Website: www.icsdm2017.org

ICSDM2017 aims to provide a unique inter- and multi-disciplinary forum for all the professionals involved in spatiotemporal big data analysis, trajectory mining, stream data mining, night-time light remote sensing data mining and geographical knowledge services academia and industry to share research ideas, present latest research achievements, foster cooperation, and encourage international collaboration.

ICSDM2017 (the 3^rd conference of ICSDM) will be held from September 21-22, 2017 in Wuhan, and will be organized by Wuhan University and Fuzhou University, and sponsored by ISPRS. ICSDM2017 is also a part of ISPRS Geospatial Week 2017 in the same place from September 18-22, 2017. The main theme of ICSDM2017 is “Spatiotemporal Big Data Analysis and Trajectory, Stream, Night-time Light Data Mining”. As the third season of these serial events. The 1^st ICSDM (ICSDM2011) held from June 29 to July 1, 2011 in Fuzhou in conjunction with the 8^th Beijing International Workshop on Geographical Information Science (BJ-IWGIS2011), The 2nd ICSDM (ICSDM2015) held from July 8-10, 2015 in Fuzhou, China. Both the former conferences have been a great success. Each of the former two conferences attracted hundreds of registered attendees from USA, Germany, France, Ireland, Italy, Austria, Japan, Switzerland, Belgium, Netherland, Hungary, Slovakia, Turkey, Thailand, Indonesia, Cameron, Algeria, and China, and 10 world-renowned scientists gave keynote speeches or invited talks. A new forum/platform for international academic exchanges had come into shape.

ICSDM2017 has two days of technical program, including plenary sessions with several keynotes and invited speeches, parallel sessions with oral and poster presentations. Contributions will be invited from researchers and participant from ISPRS society, including topics on spatiotemporal big data analysis, trajectory mining, stream data mining, night-time light remote sensing data mining, spatiotemporal data services and knowledge services, spatiotemporal process modelling, spatial decision support, and the related theories, methods and applications. ICSDM2017 will serve as an open forum or platform for researchers and practitioners to share their innovative ideas and achievements in the multi-faceted research of spatiotemporal data analysis, spatiotemporal data mining, geographical knowledge service and decision support in Big Data era.

Authors are invited to submit unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conferences or journals at the time of submission, on the topics (but not limited to) described under the Topics section.
