The GeoInfo series of scientific conferences is an annual forum for exploring research, development and innovative applications in geographic information science and related areas. This book provides a privileged view of what is currently happening in the field of geoinformatics, and a preview of what could be the hotter developments and research topics a few years from now. Additionally, it includes recent research results on spatial databases, spatial ontologies, computational geometry and visualization for geographic information systems, geostatistics and spatial statistics, spatial analysis
