• User studies and evaluations
• Indoor and outdoor locationing, wayfinding, and navigation

Accepted papers will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. A best paper award will be invited for extended Journal publication in Transactions in GIS. Each paper must be written in English, should be limited to 6000 words, and submitted in a PDF file. Each paper must include a short abstract and a list of keywords indicating subject classification. The full names and addresses of the authors should be printed only on the title page. The author who is the contact person should be identified as such.
