GIM International, the global magazine for geomatics, is published 12 times a year. The working scope of GIM International is worldwide and focuses on reporting the latest news and communicating new developments and applications in geomatics. GIM International defines ‘geomatics' as encompassing all activities relating to the acquisition, processing, querying, analysis, presentation, dissemination, management and use of geo-data and geo-information. The journal addresses both technological and managerial aspects of the industry and profession.
Reader Profile

Feature Articles
GIM International welcomes professional contributions for publication in any forthcoming issue. We encourage the submission of short articles (1,000 -1,500 words) dealing with leading-edge technological developments in land surveying, photogrammetry, remote sensing, cartography, Lidar, GPS, creation of digital surface models, GIS, 3D city modelling, location-based services, cadastre and geo-databases. In addition, and to a lesser extent, subject matter may cover applications of geomatics technologies such as natural resources, agriculture, forestry, disaster management, archaeology, and city planning. Also welcome are articles that review the status of geomatics, or parts of it, within any particular country or region, as well as business-orientated articles and articles focusing on geomatics education.
We discourage academic articles and those written for a specific scientific audience, and papers focusing upon specific, commercial geomatics products.
Submission
Before sending in an article, please ensure that it complies with our

Feature Guidelines GIM International 2011.pdf |
We would ask you please to read through these guidelines carefully. All material should be submitted in as complete a state as possible, and by email, text separate from illustrations.

Review and editing
All articles for publication are subject to review by our editor-in-chief. After acceptance articles will be edited and checked for English language style and grammar.
