IAMG 2011 SALZBURG - an invitation to participate

September 5-9 2011, the world cultural heritage city of Salzburg is the setting for IAMG 2011, the Annual Conference of the International Association for Mathematical Geosciences. 

IAMG 2011 will focus on topics of high industry and research relevance, adressing a wide range of geoscientists and civil engineers, and providing opportunities for students and young scientists to engage with some of the best geosciences minds in the world.

Besides covering IAMG 2011 core topics like geostatistics, reservoir modelling, 3D modelling or geo-process simulation, the IAMG 2011 conference will address applied mathematical geosciences issues with a specific reference to alpine regions: simulation and modelling in hydrogeology and engineering geology as well as geohazard modelling.

Moreover, as from the close association of the Salzburg based Austrian Academy of Sciences GIScience Research Institute and the University of Salzburg Centre for Geoinformatics, recent developments in GIS and remote sensing with an emphasis on object based image analysis as well as non-destructive 3D reconstruction of rock macro- and microstructures will be highlighted.

This broad thematic range is organized in 10 topics with a total of 24 thematic sessions and includes a selection of professional short courses on geosciences topics.

The conference site is the Natural Science Building of Salzburg University, perhaps the most beautiful campus in Austria. Surrounded by stunning scenery and open green space, this is the perfect place to share experience and expertise. Just within walking distance from the IAMG 2011 venue, the Old Town of Salzburg mirrors a thousand years of European history.
