摘要
This issue contains papers selected from the contributions presented at the 1st International Cartographic Association (ICA) Workshop on Geospatial Analysis and Modeling held in Vienna on the 8th of July, 2006 (http://www.hig.se/similar to bjg/ica/workshop/). The theme papers demonstrate partially recent developments in geospatial analysis and modeling for uncovering knowledge for various applications. This research has seen intensive growth over the past decade due to application needs and the increasing availability of geospatial information collected from various sources. The challenge for the research is to go beyond the conventional cartographic and geographic (mainly statistics-based) methods, and to develop more advanced and robust models for analyzing and mining geospatial information.
