Call for papers for the 28th AGILE conference, Geographic Information Science responding to Global Challenges, Dresden, Germany on 10-13 June 2025
The Association of Geographic Information Laboratories in Europe (AGILE) has held annual conferences focused on Geographic Information Science since 1998. The next AGILE 2025 conference will be held in Dresden, Germany, on 10-13 June 2025.
The conference theme “Geographic Information Science responding to Global Challenges” recognizes the pivotal role of geospatial data and analysis in informing decision-making for current global issues affecting humanity, the environment, and global resilience (more information about AGILE 2025.
The topic of this study includes Open Spatial Data, Open Science, Open-source Geospatial Tools and Applications , Disaster and Risk Management, Way Finding, Routing and Indoor Navigation or Spatial Databases and Data Management.
We used open-ssource data and software including OpenRouteService (ORS),Pgrouting, PostGIS, R or QGIS. In addition, we mainly used the open-source data from OpenStreetMap (OSM). Based on centrality metrics and alternative paths, we compared the centrality of the road network in the core of the metropolitan area of Rio Grande do Sul before and after the flood event that took place on the 29th of April of 2024. The methodology is mainly conducted in SQL using PostGIS to handle geospatial data and Pgrouting to analyze road networks.
The submission type is use case.
