FOSS4G is "the conference" for Open Source Geospatial Software and in year 2010 will meet in Barcelona, Spain.

FOSS4G is heralded as the international "gathering of tribes" of open source geospatial communities, where developers and users show off their latest software and projects. The spatial industry is undergoing rapid innovations and the open source spatial community is one of the forces driving the change. The FOSS4G conference is more than a melting pot of great ideas it is a catalyst and opportunity to unite behind the many successful geospatial products, standards and protocols.

The Conference will explore drivers of economic and related social change and how these measures can assist the development of Australia. The Conference themes will focus on the information required to understand current trends and develop a relevant and accurate public policy response.

As a participant at the NatStats Conference you will help contribute to the effective use of better, broader and more comparable information for better monitoring of government services, improved access to and use made of data by the wider community, and reduced overall costs for the provision of government information services.

NatStats 2010 is an initiative of the National Statistical Service, a community of government agencies, working together to build a rich statistical picture for a better informed Australia. For more information visit www.nss.gov.au.

The congress will serve to share knowledge to advance the science and practice of mine surveying, mining and geotechnical engineering, geology, mineral evaluation and allied disciplines. With a current membership of 42 countries, the ISM is expecting participation from many countries, making this an excellent opportunity to share knowledge with international colleagues. The scope of activities addressed by the commissions of the ISM, which guide the themes of this congress, should serve to attract papers and presentations from a diversity of mining professionals.

This is the first time that an ISM congress is hosted in Africa and only the second time that a congress has been held in the southern hemisphere.

The 3rd International Congress on Image and Signal Processing (CISP 2010) and the 3rd International Conference on BioMedical Engineering and Informatics (BMEI 2010) will be jointly held in Yantai, China.

Yantai was listed as one of the world's most inhabitable places by the United Nations and was recognized as the "most charming city of China" by China Central Television. Undulating hills rise above the area's many rivers and are framed by beaches and neighboring islands. During summer, the breeze wafts from the sea, and the hills become ornamented with a sea of wildflowers. Famous tourist attractions include the Tashan Mountain, Kongdong Island, and Penglai Pavilion Scenic Area. Seafood and fruits are plentiful in Yantai.

CISP’10-BMEI’10 is a premier international forum for scientists and researchers to present the state of the art of multimedia, signal processing, biomedical engineering and informatics. The previous CISP’09-BMEI’09 attracted over 3000 submissions from around the world. The registration fee of US$390 includes proceedings, lunches, dinners, banquet, coffee breaks, and all technical sessions. CISP’10-BMEI’10 is technically co-sponsored by the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.

Selected best papers will appear in SCI-indexed journal(s). All papers in conference proceedings will be indexed by both EI Compendex and ISTP, as well as the IEEE Xplore (CISP 2010 IEEE Catalog Number: CFP1094D-PRT, ISBN: 978-1-4244-6514-9; BMEI 2010 IEEE Catalog Number: CFP1093D-PRT, ISBN: 978-1-4244-6496-8).
