The conference Programme Committee invites interested contributors to submit an abstract for a professional or research presentation at the GeoCart conference. All abstracts will be reviewed by Committee members with a professional or research background, as applicable.
If a submitted abstract is accepted, one of the following will apply depending on the results of the review:
- Accepted for oral presentation at the conference and included in the conference proceedings, subject to review recommendations
- Accepted for poster presentation at the conference and included in the conference Proceedings, subject to review recommendations (some abstracts originally submitted for consideration for oral presentation may be in this category)
Abstracts of lesser quality or unrelated to conference topics will be declined. Due to space and time constraints, there will be a maximum 48 oral presentations accepted for the 2026 conference. Approved presentations will be allocated to sessions at the discretion of the Programme Committee. Once the programme is full, remaining submissions may be offered an alternative poster presentation. There is no limit for poster submissions.
Unless instructed otherwise, oral presentations will be limited to a 20-minute time slot in one of two concurrent sessions. Posters will be displayed throughout the conference. A poster presentation session will be scheduled for authors to engage directly with attendees. The dates and times of all sessions will be published in the conference schedule.
The GeoCart’2026 Conference Proceedings, collating accepted abstracts, will be published in the CartoPRESS series.
