Dear colleagues,
The ICA LBS Commission is starting an initiative to develop a
cross-cutting research agenda for the field of Location-Based Services
(LBS) <http://lbs.icaci.org/research-agenda/>. As a first step, we
invite everyone to write a one paragraph proposal to describe what
she/he believes are the “big problems” that should be addressed to bring
LBS research into a higher level.
Please note that the deadline for one paragraph proposals of “big
problems” in LBS has been just extended to *5 August 2016*. Please
submit your contribution here
<http://cartography.tuwien.ac.at/limesurvey/index.php/863315/lang-en>.
Look forward to your contributions.
Best,
Haosheng Huang, Georg Gartner, Jukka Krisp

Dear Colleagues,
The ICA Commission on Location-Based Services <http://lbs.icaci.org/> is
currently starting an initiative to develop a cross-cutting research
agenda for the field of Location-Based Services (LBS), aiming to
identify key research questions and challenges that are essential for
the LBS development in the next 5 or 10 years.
*The details of the initiative are available here at:*
http://lbs.icaci.org/research-agenda/
As a first step in this process, we invite all interested parties to
write a one paragraph proposal to describe what they believe are the
“big problems” that should be addressed to bring LBS research into a
higher level.
The commission chairs together with several invited experts will then
examine, classify, and group these proposals, and provide a first list
of "key problems". The list will be circulated to the LBS research
community, and we will then invite everyone to write a one-page position
paper to further develop cross-cutting research directions and plans
toward these “key problems”.
*Important Dates:*
* *15 July 2016,* deadline for one paragraph proposals of "big
problems" in LBS. Please submit your proposal here
<http://cartography.tuwien.ac.at/limesurvey/index.php/863315/lang-en>.
* *20 August 2016,* publication of the selected "key problems" on the
commission website
* *1 October 2016,* deadline for expression of interest in writing a
one-page position paper
* *1 November 2016,* deadline for one-page position papers
We are exploring the possibility of having a workshop, preceding the LBS
2016 in Vienna, <http://lbsconference.org/> to discuss these position
papers and the cross-cutting research directions.
Please feel free to distribute the information to your network and
contacts. Everyone is invited to join and contribute!
We are looking forward to your one-paragraph proposal by 15 July 2016!
Best,
Haosheng Huang, Georg Gartner, Jukka Krisp
