This is the last call for abstracts for GeoComputation 2019<https://www.otago.ac.nz/geocomputation/index.html> - Adventures in GeoComputation, which will run from 18th to 21st September 2019 in the mountain resort of Queenstown, New Zealand. The conference will be jointly organised by University of Otago, University of Auckland, University of Canterbury and Victoria University Wellington.

** The deadline for extended abstracts is 14th June 2019. **

Abstract submissions are made via the GeoComputation 2019 Easy Chair site<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=geocomp19>. Extended abstracts are up to 1500 words in length, using either Word<http://www.geocomputation.org/2017/conference/FamilyNamesOfAuthors.docx> or Latex<http://www.geocomputation.org/2017/conference/FamilyNamesOfAuthors.zip> templates (submitted documents in PDF format).
Topics include, but are not limited to: spatial analysis and statistics, geographic visualization and visual analytics, virtual and augmented reality, cyber GIS, open geospatial science, computational movement analysis, complex systems analysis, AI and machine learning methods for geographical research, Agent-based modelling, cellular automata and geosimulation, geospatial uncertainty, spatial data mining and applied geocomputation.

We have a themed session<https://www.otago.ac.nz/geocomputation/programme-and-speakers/otago707650.html#themes> on 'Novel spatio-temporal modeling paradigms'. If you are interested in submitting to this, then clearly mark your abstract with the name of this session, whilst following the formatting guidelines below.

The New Zealand Geospatial Research Conference 2019<https://geospatial.ac.nz/nzgrc-2019/> (NZGRC) will run in conjunction with GeoComputation 2019, on 18th September 2019, and is now open for abstract submission.

We are also pleased to announce a workshop on Spatial Data Science with Python (PySAL)<https://www.otago.ac.nz/geocomputation/programme-and-speakers/otago707650.html#workshops>, also running on 18th September, led by Prof. Sergio Rey (University of California, Riverside).

Registration<https://www.otago.ac.nz/geocomputation/registration/> for the conference is now open, with early bird rates of NZ$650 full registration and NZ$400 student registration (to July 12th). Options to register for the Spatial Data Science workshop and NZGRC (at a discounted rate) will be live in a few days.

Find out more on our keynote speakers<https://www.otago.ac.nz/geocomputation/programme-and-speakers/otago707650.html#keynote> and what they will be talking about: Janet Franklin (USA), Rachel Franklin (UK), Shawn Laffan (Aus) and David O'Sullivan (NZ).

There will be a post-conference GeoComputation 2019 special feature issue of Journal of Spatial Information Science (JoSIS)<https://www.josis.org/>.

Queenstown is the stunning setting for this GeoComputation conference, nestled in the Southern Alps of New Zealand on the shores of Lake Wakatipu. It is a popular base for all sorts of outdoor recreation: walking (locally, “tramping”), biking and at this time of year, the late ski season. It is also the “adventure capital of the world” for those after bungee jumping and white water rafting thrills.

The Rydges Lakeland Resort Hotel<https://www.otago.ac.nz/geocomputation/venue-and-accommodation/index.html> will be hosting the conference, where a block of rooms has also been reserved for conference delegates to book. There are plenty of alternative accommodation options too, as the conference is 5 minutes walk away from the town centre. Travel-wise, Queenstown is accessible, having direct air links to the main international airport hubs of Christchurch and Auckland as well as major Australian cities. There are also good road links from Christchurch, with a daily bus service.
