GeoInformatica位于兩個快速發(fā)展的領(lǐng)域的交匯處，提供了一個有效的論壇，傳播關(guān)于擴(kuò)大計算機(jī)科學(xué)在空間研究中的應(yīng)用方面的原始和基礎(chǔ)研究和經(jīng)驗。當(dāng)代地球研究需要越來越復(fù)雜的計算工具，通過地理信息系統(tǒng)(GIS)對地球觀測進(jìn)行計算機(jī)處理目前引起了政府、工業(yè)界和研究界的極大關(guān)注。該雜志涵蓋空間建模和數(shù)據(jù)庫;GIS人機(jī)界面;數(shù)字制圖;空間意象;GIS的并行性、分布式和通信;時空推理等等。GeoInformatica展示了計算機(jī)科學(xué)應(yīng)用于地理信息系統(tǒng)的最具創(chuàng)新性的研究成果。

Located at the confluence of two rapidly advancing domains, GeoInformatica provides an effective forum for disseminating original and fundamental research and experience in the expanding uses of computer science for spatial studies. Contemporary Earth studies require more and more sophisticated computing tools, and computer processing of Earth observations through Geographic Information Systems (GIS) currently attracts a great deal of attention from governmental, industrial and research worlds.The journal covers spatial modeling and databases; human-computer interfaces for GIS; digital cartography; space imagery; parallelism, distribution and communication through GIS; spatio-temporal reasoning and more.GeoInformatica presents the most innovative research results in the application of computer science applied to geographic information systems.
