Following the recent evolutions of cartography, and a successful workshop in 2022 on Computational Cartography and Map Generalisation with Deep Learning, this CartoAI workshop seeks to gather the researchers working on artificial intelligence techniques applied to cartography. For this workshop, contributions on all AI techniques are welcome including, e.g., machine learning, optimization, and multi-agent systems.The workshop will give the opportunity to the participants to give short presentations of recent and on-going research. It will also include a keynote and time for discussions.

Submission Guidelines

You are invited to submit a 2-page abstract, following the general guidelines of the ICA conference abstracts. The proceedings of the workshop will be published on the website of the ICA commission on map generalisation. Papers should be submitted to EasyChair.
