1.    Introduction

The GeoInformatics Conference series was initiated by the International Association of Chinese Professionals in Geographic Information Sciences (CPGIS) in 1992 and has held twenty-eight annual international conferences on geographic informatics all over the world. This international conference series has provided a unique forum for exchanging novel ideas and cutting-edge knowledge on geographic information sciences and technologies among GIScience professionals worldwide. GeoInformatics 2022 (the 29^th CPGIS Annual Conference and the 30^th Anniversary of the Founding of CPGIS) will be held on Augusts 15-18, 2022 at the China University of Geosciences (Beijing), Beijing, China. The primary theme of this year’s conference is “GISciences for Coordinated Urban-Rural Development”. Addressing the challenges and opportunities of coordinated Urban-Rural high-quality development we face in recent years, Geoinformatics 2022 particularly encourages topics related to how geographic information sciences and technologies respond to Urban-Rural development. Other presentations regarding cutting-edge research on or related to broadly-defined geographic information sciences, technologies, and applications, are also welcome, as always. The conference will include thematic presentations, group discussions, paper competitions, special forums, etc. All the accepted papers will be officially published as conference proceedings (EI retrieval). The conference will also organize academic special journals to recommend excellent papers to be published in SCI or SSCI retrieved journals after peer-review process.

12. Publications:

Submission and Acceptance:
Authors can choose to submit either an extended abstract or a full paper (but not both). Authors of accepted extended abstract or full paper will be invited to give oral or poster presentations in the conference. Acceptance priority will be given to submissions with concrete research results. Publications include the following: 

(1) USB-drive publication: 
All accepted extended abstracts will be included in USB-drives that all participants to the conference will receive.

(2) Conference proceedings by IEEE:
Authors of full papers can choose to publish their papers in the Conference Proceedings published by IEEE.

(3) Special issue in peer-reviewed journals: 
Authors can choose to NOT publish their full papers in the conference proceedings, but instead submit them to special issues of international journals associated with the conference. If an author chooses to submit her/his paper to a journal, the paper must follow the format requirements of that particular journal and will go through the regular peer-review process of that journal.

Important Notes:

(1) For a full paper to be included in the conference proceedings, the author(s) must present it in the Geoinformatics annual conference.

(2) Due to the copy right restriction, the authors can choose to publish, if accepted, their papers either in the Conference Proceedings or a journal, but NOT BOTH.

Publication Charge:
Full papers that are accepted to be included in the IEEE Conference Proceedings will be charged a publication fee of $200, which is separate from the conference registration fee. The fee will be used to cover the cost in managing, reviewing, and compiling the submissions for the proceedings.

Publication Fee Refund Policy:

If a paper is accepted to be published in the IEEE Conference Proceedings, but its authors cannot present it in the conference for an uncontrollable cause, the paper will not be published in the IEEE Conference Proceedings. In this case, the authors must contact the local organizer within 30 days after the last day of the conference to receive a refund of 50% of the paid publication fee. After this 30-day grace period, none of the paid publication fee is refundable.
