2nd International Workshop on Mobile Geospatial Augmented Reality
Quebec City, Quebec, Canada
August 28-29, 2008

Come and join us to discover the geospatial applications
and technologies of tomorrow!
*Call for Participation*
We are pleased to invite you to attend and participate to the 2nd
International Workshop on Mobile Geospatial Augmented Reality
(http://regard.crg.ulaval.ca), which will be held in Quebec City,
Quebec, Canada, from the 28-29th of August 2008. It follows the great
success of the first edition that took place in Banff, AB, in 2006.
The second edition will be the opportunity to pursue the discussions and
reflections initiated between the geospatial and augmented reality
communities. This year, the workshop is organised jointly with the
workshop of the GeoEduc3D research project funded by the GEOIDE Network
of Centres of Excellence. GeoEduc3D deals with educative mobile games,
augmented reality and geospatial technologies. Therefore, the mobile
game community will also be targeted by the 2nd International Workshop
on Mobile Geospatial Augmented Reality.
The workshop aims at bringing together researchers, developers, users
and practitioners carrying out research and development in these fields.
The workshop provides a forum for original research contributions and
practical experiences of mobile AR, geospatial technologies and
geoinformatics, and mobile games, fostering interdisciplinary
discussions in all aspects of these three fields, and will highlight
future trends in this area. The workshop is organized in a way to
promote networking between the participants, to initiate and favour
discussions regarding cutting-edge technologies in the field, to
exchange research ideas and to promote international collaboration.
