We would like to bring to your attention the upcoming ACM SIGSPATIAL
International Conference on Advances in Geographic Information Systems
that will be held in Chicago, on November 1-4, 2011.  It is the
nineteenth event in a series of symposia and workshops that began in
1993 with the aim of bringing together researchers, developers, users,
and practitioners in relation to novel systems based on geo-spatial
data and knowledge, and fostering interdisciplinary discussions and
research in all aspects of geographic information systems. The
conference provides a forum for original research contributions
covering all conceptual, design, and implementation aspects of GIS
ranging from applications, user interfaces, and visualization to data
storage and query processing and indexing. The conference is the premier
annual event of the ACM Special Interest Group on Spatial Information
(ACM SIGSPATIAL http://www.sigspatial.org/).

The early registration deadline is 09/30/2011. Online registration is
open at http://acmgis2011.cs.umn.edu/registration.html. Conference hotel
reservation is available at
http://acmgis2011.cs.umn.edu/venue_accomodations.html. The special rate
is available for booking until October 10 or until the block of rooms
reserved at the conference rate has been exhausted. We hope that you will
be able to attend and we look forward to your participation.
