COM.Geo 2012 Highlight (1): Sensor Computing
for Geospatial
What will be a world characterized by sensors everywhere?
How to handle sensor data explosion in such a world?
At COM.Geo 2011, the workshop, “Expanding Geoweb
to An Internet of Things”, was introduced. This
year, COM.Geo 2012 will further bring more new thoughts
to explore sensor computing for geospatial research
and application.. >>

Three Mobile Geospatial Training Classes Open
Now
COM.Geo Institute is now offering three mobile geospatial
training courses. The total one-week intensive training
courses touch on the latest computing geospatial technology
trends that utilize mobile platforms to support mobile
geospatial applications. Lectures will be followed by
the opportunity for hands-on demonstrations.
