Agro-Geoinformatics 2019

The Eighth International Conference on Agro-Geoinformatics (Agro-Geoinformatics 2019) will be held in Istanbul, Turkey, on July 16-19, 2019. This conference is organized and hosted by TARBIL Agricultural Informatics Applied Research Center and Istanbul Technical University (ITU) and Center for Spatial Information Science and Systems (CSISS) of George Mason University with technical and financial sponsorships from Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and CSISS Foundation Inc.

Agro-geoinformation is critical for the agricultural sustainability, food security, environmental research, bioenergy, natural resource conservation, land use management, carbon accounting, global climate change, health research, agricultural industry, commodity trading, economy research, education, agricultural decision making and policy formulation, etc. The annual Agro-Geoinformatics conferences have been successfully held since 2012. The Agro-Geoinformatics conferences have provided and will continue to provide an ideal venue for researchers, scientists, engineers, professors and students to exchange their ideas, research results, professional experiences, the latest developments and future vision of agro-geoinformatics. The Agro-Geoinformatics 2019 conference will continue covering the recent advances in the life cycle of agro-geoinformatics, from data collection (including field surveys and remote sensing), processing, storing, archiving, preservation, retrieving, transmitting, accessing, visualization, analyzing, synthesizing, presenting and dissemination to decision makers. This conference encourages the submission of papers which include: original research, work in progress, new findings, new methods, new ideas and new applications.

The conference will include plenary, oral, and poster sessions. The topics of the conference are listed HERE.

Selected paper will be published in SCI-indexed journal (IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing (JSTAR)).
