AGSE 2012: Geoinformation - Catalyst for planing, development and good governance

Applied Geoinformatics for Society and Environment (AGSE 2010)

The overall scope of this series of conferences & summer schools is to offer an interdisciplinary, international forum for sharing knowledge about the application of Geoinformatics with focus on application and on developing countries. This will be achieved by a series of summer schools and conferences in different countries. In 2010, the conference will take place in Arequipa, Peru.

• August 03 until 06, 2010
• Universidad Catolica de Santa Maria, http://www.ucsm.edu.pe/
• Conference Homepage: http://www.applied-geoinformatics.org

The content is twofold and participative. There will be professional training and workshops about current topics in the fields of Photogrammetry and Geoinformatics as well as reports (presentations) from the participants about applications and developments in their countries.

The program committee welcomes papers in all areas of Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformatics until

July 10, 2010

the closing date for Early Bird Registration.

All papers submitted until this date and accpted by the program committee will be included in the proceedings (digital or printed).
