Both oral and poster presentations are available. Presentations may be given in either Japanese or English.

It is possible to make both a oral and a poster presentation. However, only oral presentations may be accepted due to the limitations of the venue.

Submitted paper files will be published on the conference Web site.
 

As a principle, only presentations of theoretical and applied research results related to geographic information systems that have not been previously published are accepted. 
presentations that are not original or complete are not accepted. 

Submission of a paper is required. (Each presenter will have 15 minutes for presentation and 5 minutes for discussion, for a total of 20 minutes.)

This year, the conference will be held in conjunction with the International Association of Geo-informatics (IAG'i). When you register, please choose whether you will present at the GISA (Japanese or English) or IAG'i (English) session. If you are presenting in English, the IAG'i session is recommended.

Discussions of research in its early stages and reports of surveys and activities are also welcome. Please make use of this opportunity for free and active exchange of information. 

Submission of papers is optional.

Posters will be displayed at any time during the conference, and the core time will be set.

Both oral and poster presentations are not allowed to be commercial advertisements. Please apply for the organized sessions.

Precautions
For the recommended browser for the application system, please check the login screen of the system. Even if you access the system using the recommended browser, you may not be able to submit your manuscript depending on your computer environment. If you cannot submit your abstract, please try to submit your abstract from another computer with a different computer environment.

Please register as early as possible, as the line is expected to be very busy just before the deadline. The secretariat assumes no responsibility for incomplete abstract submissions due to congestion.
The secretariat will not be held responsible for any mistakes made by the submitting author. Before clicking the "Register" button, please make sure that all the information is correct.
