varied aspects of geographic information systems (GIS) for business
intelligence, analytics, knowledge management, and spatial data management.
This area is becoming an essential aspect for governments and has been growing
rapidly over the past decade in business. The mini-track encourages manuscript
submission on theory, methodology, applications, behavioral studies, and
emerging areas in GIS. Current areas of interest include spatial big data,
spatial knowledge management, theory development, cloud-based GIS, spatial
crowdsourcing, spatial workforce, behavioral research, geo-design, privacy and
security aspects, mobile location-based applications, and new and emerging areas
of GIS. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0.0001pt;line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><br>
