GISRUK is the largest academic conference in Geographic Information Science in the UK. Since 1993, GISRUK has attracted international researchers and practitioners in GIS and cognate fields, including geography, computer science, data science, and urban planning to share the latest advances in spatial computing and analysis. The conference theme this year is the COVID19 pandemic and will include papers on mapping the spread of the disease and on the spatial analysis of its impact on such things as personal mobility, social inequalities and the outcomes of interventions such as stay at home orders.

The conference will host more than 50 research presentations by international scientists and researchers. The conference presentations will also include papers in the following areas:

  • Urban Analytics and Smart Cities
  • Urban infrastructure modelling and the built environment
  • Spatial and Spatio-temporal modelling
  • Cartography and Geovisualisation
  • Volunteered Geographic Information
  • Applications in transport, economics, health, and environmental science

The conference programme will be posted on the website and via email to all registered participants in early April. Conference proceedings of all accepted papers will be made available online
