COM.Geo papers are read and cited worldwide. They have broad impact on the development of theory, method and practice in Computing for Geospatial fields. Accepted manuscripts appear in the COM.Geo Proceedings on Computing for Geospatial Research and Application, published by ACM, and in the ACM Digital Library for world distribution.
Papers will be peer-reviewed in a single-blind process and authors notified by e-mail (3-5 reviews for a full paper, 1-3 reviews for a short paper). Authors must present accepted papers at the COM.Geo Conference.
Full Papers ( up to 10 pages, 20 minutes
of complete presentation with 2-3 minutes Q&A)
Full Papers present significant contributions to research and practice in all aspects of Computing for Geospatial. These include mainly accomplished research and/or
application results and have 8 pages at the maximum.
They can be either research papers or application
papers.
Short Papers (up to 6 pages, 15 minutes of presentation and Q&A)
Short Papers present brief and focused research contributions that are noteworthy but may not merit a full paper. These
are mostly composed of short, narrowly-focused research
or application papers. Besides, these can be fresh
developments, latest-breaking research, non-traditional
research, or "small research", i.e., some novel ideas
and elegant research results that are perhaps too small
for the heavyweight full research paper but that are nonetheless of
significant use to practitioners.
Final camera-ready submissions in PDF should be up to 10 pages for Full Papers and 6 pages for Short Papers in length and adhere to the ACM style guidelines. Please see your acceptance notification email for detailed instructions about the procedure and timeline for the revision submission.
Please check Important Dates for submission and follow this link to submit your work: Submission Site.
