Annual Meeting of the Association of American Geographers Boston, MA, April 15-19, 2008
Call for Participation
Session: Cognitive Issues in Geographic Information Visualization
Organizers: Sara Irina Fabrikant (University of Zurich) and Amy Lobben (University of Oregon)
Specialty Group Sponsors: Cartography, GIS, and Environmental Perception & Behavioral Geography
Content
We invite papers within the interdisciplinary research area of geographic information visualization and cognition. Specifically of interest are theoretical and empirical contributions exploring the human-geovisualization display interface. This includes (but is not limited to):
~ geovisualization design research (2D/3D, animated/virtual/ immersive, static/interactive/mobile, etc.) ~ the application of cognitive theories and methods to understanding
geovisualization displays & geovis tool use ~ the application of geovisualization displays & tools to understanding spatial cognition ~ reasoning, inference & decision making with geovisualization displays & tools ~ human-geovisualization interaction research
Participants
In addition to geographers, GIScientists, and cartographers, we are also looking for speakers from a broad range of disciplines, including but not limited to psychology, cognitive science, education, HCI, etc.
To be included in this session, please:
1. Register and submit your abstract online following the AAG Guidelines (http://www.aag.org/annualmeetings/).
2. Email your presenter identification number (PIN), paper title, and abstract to both of the session organizers by October 26, 2007.
