About the journal

 GeoInformatica is located at the confluence of two rapidly advancing domains: Computer Science and Geographic Information Science; nowadays, Earth studies use more and more sophisticated computing theory and tools, and computer processing of Earth observations through Geographic Information Systems (GIS) attracts a great deal of attention from governmental, industrial and research worlds.
This journal aims to promote the most innovative results coming from the research in the field of computer science applied to geographic information systems. Thus, GeoInformatica provides an effective forum for disseminating original and fundamental research and experience in the rapidly advancing area of the use of computer science for spatial studies.

     

     Many topics in the field of computer science involve a very specific approach in the domain of geographic information systems; therefore the topics that are addressed include, but are not limited to:

 

  • Spatial Modeling: spatial data models integrating the geometric and semantic aspects of geographic information, requirements analysis for GIS applications, GIS performance modeling and evaluation, qualitative aspects of geographic information, impact of spatial information handling on computing models.
  • Spatial Databases: spatio-temporal data structures, spatial data storage and indexing techniques, query processing and optimization, spatial database knowledge discovery, GIS metadata, multidatabase GIS.
  • Human-Computer Interfaces for GIS: graphic user interfaces for GIS, graphic browser interfaces for navigating spatial databases, multimedia applied to GIS, virtual reality for representing spatial data.
  • Digital Cartography at the Core of GIS: multidimensional digital map display technology, cartographic generalization for multiscale representation, computer-aided cartographic design, automated map aesthetics management, dynamic cartography, animated map technology.
  • Space Imagery in GIS: remote sensing, spatial image processing, shape recognition from aerial and satellite images, spatial information measurement and retrieval.
  • Parallelism, Distribution and Communication through GIS: parallel, distributed processing of spatial data, client-server architecture for GIS, GIS and cooperative work, manipulation of geographic information over the Internet, interoperability among heterogeneous GIS, electronic geographic data interchange standards, concurrent and distributed spatial objects.

Spatio-Temporal Reasoning: reasoning in GIS, spatio-temporal knowledge processing, fuzzy spatio-temporal information, artificial intelligence in GIS, genetic and neural algorithms in GIS, moving objects within GIS, real-time GIS, active spatio-temporal objects.

Instructions to Authors

Authors are encouraged to submit high quality, original work that has neither appeared in, nor is under consideration by, other journals.

Process for Submission

1.       Authors should submit five hard copies of their final manuscript to:
GeoInformatica
Journal Editorial Office/Melissa Andersen
Kluwer Academic Publishers
101 Philip Drive, Norwell
MA 02061, USA

2.       Enclose with each manuscript, on a separate page, from three to five key words.

3.       Enclose originals for the illustrations, see "Style for Illustrations", for one copy of the manuscript. Photocopies of the figures may accompany the remaining copies of the manuscript. Alternately, original illustrations may be submitted after the paper has been accepted.

4.       Enclose a separate page giving the preferred address of the contact author for correspondence and return of proofs. Please include a telephone number, fax number and email address, if available.

5.       If possible, send an electronic mail message to melissa.andersen@wkap.com at the time your manuscript is submitted, including the title, authors names, and abstract. This will help the journal expedite the refereeing of the manuscript.

6.       The refereeing is done by anonymous reviewers.

Style for Manuscript

1.       Typeset, double space in English; use one side of sheet only (laser printed, typewritten and good quality duplication acceptable).

2.       Use an informative title for the paper and include an abstract of 100 to 250 words at the head of the manuscript. The abstract should be a carefully worded description of the problem addressed, the key ideas introduced, and the results. Abstracts will be printed with the article.

3.       Provide a separate double-spaced sheet listing all footnotes, beginning with "Affiliation of author" and continuing with numbered footnotes. Acknowledgment of financial support may be given if appropriate.

4.       References should appear in a separate bibliography at the end of the paper, double-spaced, with items referred to by numerals and put in alphabetical order. References in the text should be denoted by numbers in square brackets, e.g., [12]. References should be complete, in the following style:

Style for papers: Author(s) initials followed by last name for each author, paper title, publication name, volume, inclusive page numbers, month and year.

Style for books: Author(s), title, publisher, location, year, chapter or page numbers (if desired).

Examples as follows:

o        (Book) D. Marr, Vision, A Computational Investigation into the Human Representation & Processing of Visual Information, Freeman: San Francisco, CA, 1982.

o        (Journal Article) A. Rosenfeld and M. Thurston. "Edge and curve detection for visual scene analysis", IEEE Trans. Comput., Vol. C-20:562-569, 1971.

o        (Conference Proceedings) A. Witkin. "Scales space filtering", in Proc. Int. Joint Conf. Artif. Intell., Karlsruhe, West Germany, 1019-1021, 1983.

o        (Lab. memo.) A.L. Yuille and T. Poggio. "Scaling theorems for zero crossings"; M.I.T. Artif. Intell. Lab., Massachusetts Inst. Technol., Cambridge, MA, A.I. Memo. 722, 1983.

5.       Type or mark mathematical expressions exactly as they should appear in print. Journal style for letter symbols is as follows: Variables, italic type (indicated by underline); constants, roman text type; matrices and vectors, boldface type (indicated by wavy underline). In word-processor manuscripts, use appropriate typeface. It will be assumed that letters in displayed equations are to be set in italic type unless you mark them otherwise. All letter symbols in text discussion must be marked if they should be italic or boldface. Indicate best breaks for equations in case they will not fit on one line.

Electronic Delivery

Please send only the electronic version (of ACCEPTED paper) via one of the methods listed below. Note, in the event of minor discrepancies between the electronic version and hard copy, the electronic file will be used as the final version.

Via electronic mail

1.       Please e-mail electronic version to: KAPfiles@wkap.com

2.       Recommended formats for sending files via e-mail:

o        Binary files - uuencode or binhex

Style for Illustrations

1.       Originals for illustrations should be sharp, noise-free, and of good contrast. We regret that we cannot provide drafting or art service.

2.       Line drawings should be in laser printer output or in India ink on paper, or board. Use 8 by 11-inch (22 x 29 cm) size sheets if possible, to simplify handling of the manuscript.

3.       Each figure should be mentioned in the text and numbered consecutively using Arabic numerals. In one of your copies, which you should clearly distinguish, specify the desired location of each figure in the text but place the original figure itself on a separate page. In the remainder of copies, which will be read by the reviewers, include the illustration itself at the relevant place in the text.

4.       Number each table consecutively using Arabic numerals. Please label any material that can be typeset as a table, reserving the term figure for material that has been drawn. Specify the desired location of each table in the text, but place the table itself on a separate page following the text. Type a brief title above each table.

5.       All lettering should be large enough to permit legible reduction.

6.       Photographs should be glossy prints, of good contrast and gradation, and any reasonable size.

7.       Number each original on the back.

8.       Provide a separate sheet listing all figure captions, in proper style for the typesetter, e.g., Fig. 3. Examples of the fault coverage of random vectors in (a) combinational and (b) sequential circuits.

Proofing
