Workshop on Advances in Spatio-Temporal Analytics (ST-Analytics 2017) 
at the 17th International Conference on Computational Science and Its Applications (ICCSA 2017) 
Trieste, Italy, July 3 – 6, 2017 

Web site: http://www.lac.inpe.br/ST-Analytics/

Call for Papers 
—————————————————— 

Current technological developments allow the collection of huge amounts of spatio-temporal data that are usually stored and afterwards analyzed to support the decision-making process. Analytical tools, ranging from statistical packages to sophisticated data mining algorithms, allow the analysis of such data sets.

The ST-Analytics workshop will address the analytical methodologies, strategies and techniques that allow the analysis of spatio-temporal data and the suitable visualization mechanisms that ensure an effective integration of this type of data in the decision-making process in organizations.
