Description:
The goal of this panel session is to critically examine the concepts of space and place in geography in general and in geographic information science (GIScience) in particular so that intelligent geographic information systems incorporating concepts of smart space and smart place can be developed to support research in GIScience, geography, and beyond. An article of “Understanding the New Human Dynamics in Smart Spaces and Places: Toward a Splatial Framework” (Annals of the American Association of Geographers, 110:2, 339-348.), which proposes a space-place GIScience framework that integrates the concepts of space (absolute space, relative space, relational space, and mental space) and place (location, locale, place identity, and sense of place), will be the focus of this panel discussion.
