We are organizing an International Workshop on Place-Related Knowledge Acquisition Research at this year’s Spatial Cognition conference in Kloster Seeon, Germany. The organizing committee is Stephan Winter, William Mackaness, Krzysztof Janowicz, myself, and Maria Vasardani. Check the website for more details!

We are partner in a project of the EU FP7-PEOPLE-IRSES program. The project mSAFE: mobile Smart Applications for Evacuation will deliver advances in the understanding of cognition under stress, real-time semantic querying and mobile human-computer interaction. Partners in this project are the … Continue reading →

This week, Stephan Winter and me are presenting some of our work in the context of the ‘Talking About Place’ project and of Landmarks in OSM at the Surveying and Spatial Sciences Conference in Wellington, New Zealand.

I am now officially a Chief Investigator of the ‘Talking About Place‘ Linkage project. The Australian Research Council has approved my application for becoming a CI.

The paper ‘Get Me out of Here: Collaborative Evacuation Based on Local Knowledge’ written by Stephan Winter, myself, Mingzheng Shi and Heng-Soon Gan has been accepted for the Indoor Spatial Awareness workshop held at this year’s ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances … Continue reading →

Two papers I have co-authored will be presented at workshops at this year’s Conference on Spatial Information Theory (COSIT) in Belfast, Maine. Stephan Winter will present ‘Location-Based Mobile Games for Spatial Knowledge Acquisition‘ at the workshop ‘Cognitive Engineering for Mobile GIS‘. The … Continue reading →
