FYI -- I submitted a session to AAG, which is mid-April in Seattle. You
can see the presenters (Robert Raskin, Dalia Varanka, Joshua Lieberman,
Will Smart (from New Zealand), and myself). There are only 5 presenters
in a session.

Dear Nancy Wiegand,
Congratulations on a successful submission of your session to the 2011 Annual Conference, Seattle, Washington. Your session details are as follows:
| Title: | Geospatial Semantics and Ontology |
| Description: | This is a call for papers for a session on Geospatial Semantics and Ontology at the AAG 2011 annual meeting. Geospatial data can be semantically heterogeneous, in addition to having differences in file formats. New Semantic Web methods, including creating or using ontologies, are becoming available to help with semantic interoperability to resolve diverse terms and relate concepts. Background knowledge bases can also be created using formal representations, such as RDF and OWL, to help organize and integrate geospatial data.
This session targets research and implementation that will present any aspect of geospatial data needing or using semantic and ontology techniques. Descriptive use cases are of interest even if solutions do not yet exist. Also of interest are potential solutions for semantic interoperability and the organization of shared semantic contexts such as spatiotemporal coverage and domain specific ontologies. Different kinds of geospatial data, such as typical GIS files, remote sensing data, or sensor data, are of interest, as well as scenarios from various types of geospatial domains.
To present a paper in this session: Register and submit your abstract online at: http://www.aag.org/annualmeeting . Then, email your PIN, paper title, and abstract to wiegand@xxxxxxxxxxx by the AAG abstract deadline.
Organizers:
This session is organized by SOCoP, the Spatial Ontology Community of Practice (http://www.socop.org) including Nancy Wiegand (University of Wisconsin-Madison), Naijun Zhou (University of Maryland, College Park), Gary Berg-Cross (SLAG, Inc. Knowledge Strategies), and James Wilson (James Madison University).
