This page contains some basic instructions on how to prepare and submit a Camera Ready Copy (CRC) of the short papers for the Geomorphometry conference. We typically do not provide any technical support, which means that each author is responsible to format the article following the preparation guidelines and submit a CRC version of manuscript (see an example). Submissions that do not closely follow the manuscript preparation guidelines might be removed from the revision process. The publication process is illustrated in the graph below:

Templates:

Use one of the following templates to prepare your 2-4 pages summary paper (read also the manuscript preparation guidelines):

geomph_letter_BLANK_0.doc

geomph_letter_BLANK.odt

General instructions:

1. Do not submit poorly prepared, incomplete and/or already used materials. Your paper will be reviewed by three members of the scientific committee.
2. Extended abstracts must be original works by the authors, not be currently under review in the same form by another outlet and not submitted elsewhere prior to the notification date.
3. Closely follow the manuscript preparation guidelines. Manuscripts that do not comply with the guidelines will be removed from the review process.
4. The paper has to be at least 2 and at most 4 pages long.
5. We accept only font-enbeded, high-quality graphics PDF versions of the manuscript. Do not submit MS Word documents or similar. To generate a PDF version of the article, please consider using CutePDF Writer or similar freeware.
6. Closely follow the indicated deadlines. We take no responsibility for delayed or incomplete reviews.

Suggestions:

• Consider preparing a summary paper that describes your research and gives an overview of the research results in the period of last 3-5 years. Focus on what is really novel about your approach and what still has to be done to reach the research objectives.
• Give concrete examples and illustrations of data analysis schemes, data sets, methodological concepts and results received.
• Concept papers and new research proposals are also welcome, assuming that they will evolve into full-length articles.

Abstract submissions are now open. Please use EasyChair system to submit 1-4 pages abstract. All abstracts need to be submitted following the manuscript preparation guidelines. Also note our submission deadlines indicated below.Instructions: To submit a 2-4 pages summary papers for the Geomorphometry 2018 use the EasyChair conference system. Do not submit your work by e-mail. Do not submit MS word documents but only PDF versions of your paper. Detailed instructions on how to prepare you extended abstract and how to submit it are available here. Each submission will go through a peer-review process and will be rated by the members of the scientific committee. Revisions and final acceptance of the extended abstracts will be closed in May 2018. After that we will publish the working programme of the conference and open the full registrations.

Lineage:

The data distributed here are in EHdr format, unprojected and referenced to the WGS84 geodetic datum. They are derived from CGIAR-CSI SRTM v4.1 and ASTER GDEM v2 data products. These data have been processed and merged to provide continuous coverage of ~91% of the globe. Processing and merging methodology are available in Robinson et al. (2014).

Data owner: NCEAS, NASA, NSF, and Yale University

It is with great pleasure we announce that the Symposium on Surface Modeling has been listed in the Forums, Symposiums, and Special Sessions for the Thirty-third International Geographical Congress of the IGU to be held in Beijing, China from 21st August to 25th August, 2016.

The deadline for submitting abstrats for papers and posters is 31st March, 2016.
