The development of geospatial thinking skills is the key to the increase of highly skilled citizens not only regarding geospatial disciplines (such as Geography, Environment, Geology, Cartography, etc.) but also in social sciences and humanities. The objectives of the workshop are to present the main aspects of geospatial thinking towards building a geospatially thinking society.
Contributors are invited to submit short papers which topics include, but are not limited to:
spatial thinking
geospatial education
geospatial semantics in education
ICT platforms for spatial teaching and learning
open resources for geospatial education
digital agenda for Europe
...
We look forward to see you in Lisbon!
