Summary

Introduction

Recent advances in information technology have changed the way geographical data were originally produced and made available. This Special Feature derives from the 6th edition of the International Workshop on Semantic and Conceptual Issues in Geographic Information Systems (SeCoGIS), which took place in Florence, Italy, in October 2012. The series of SeCoGIS workshops intend to bring together researchers, developers, users, and practitioners with an interest in all semantic and conceptual issues in GISs. The aim is to stimulate discussions on the integration of conceptual modeling and semantics into various web applications dealing with spatiotemporally referenced data and how this benefits end-users.
