Introduction
The GeoInformatics Conference series was initiated by the International Association of Chinese Professionals in Geographic Information Sciences (CPGIS) in 1992 and has held thirty-one annual international conferences on geographic informatics all over the world. This international conference series has provided a unique platform for networking and exchanging new ideas and cutting-edge knowledge among diverse GIScience professionals worldwide.
GeoInformatics 2025 (the 32nd CPGIS Annual Conference) will be held on June 16-18, 2025 at the Huanghe Jiaotong University, Jiaozuo, China. The primary theme of the proposed conference is GIScience for High-quality Development. Addressing the challenges and opportunities of coordinated high-quality development we face in recent years, especially in the post-COVID-19 Era, Geoinformatics 2025 particularly encourages topics related to how geographic information sciences and technologies respond to regional high-quality development. Other presentations regarding cutting-edge research on or related to broadly defined geographic information sciences, technologies, and applications, are also welcome, as always.
