The International Conference on Geoinformatics, an official event of the International Association of Chinese Professionals in Geographic Information Sciences (CPGIS), has become a major annual gathering for not only CPGIS members but also students, researchers, and professionals from various fields around the world. Each year, the conference takes place in a different global city, offering a rich platform for exchanging ideas and fostering collaboration. We are excited to announce that the 32nd annual conference will be held in Jiaozuo, China, in 2025.

Geoinformatics 2025 (the 32nd CPGIS Annual Conference) will be held on June 16-18, 2025 at the Huanghe Jiaotong University, Jiaozuo, China. The primary theme of the proposed conference is GIScience for High-quality Development. Addressing the challenges and opportunities of coordinated high-quality development we have faced in recent years, especially in the post-COVID-19 Era, Geoinformatics 2025 particularly encourages topics related to how geographic information sciences and technologies respond to regional high-quality development. Other presentations regarding cutting-edge research on or related to broadly defined geographic information sciences, technologies, and applications, are also welcome, as always.
