The ACM SIGSPATIAL International Conference on Advances 
in Geographic Information Systems 2008 (ACM GIS 2008) is the 
sixteenth event of a series of symposia and workshops that began 
in 1993 with the aim of bringing together researchers, developers, 
users, and practitioners carrying out research and development in 
novel systems based on geo-spatial data and knowledge, and fostering 
interdisciplinary discussions and research in all aspects of geographic 
information systems. The conference provides a forum for original 
research contributions covering all conceptual, design, and 
implementation aspects of GIS ranging from applications, user 
interface considerations, and visualization down to storage 
management and indexing issues. This year's conference builds 
on last year's conference great success and on being the premier 
annual conference of the newly formed ACM Special Interest 
Group on Spatial Information (ACM SIGSPATIAL). Researchers, 
students, and practitioners are invited to submit their contributions 
to this year's ACM GIS.
