Poster and Demo Instructions

The Demo & Poster session is the place where authors of Poster papers and Demonstration papers showcase their work and meet with interested attendees for in-depth technical discussions. Hence, it is important that you shape your work in an attractive way and keep your message clear and noticeable to attract people who might have an interest in your work. Please carefully follow the instructions below.

  1. Poster Preparation: All the Poster and Demo papers should prepare a poster to be displayed during the Demo&Poster Session (see program at http://sigspatial2022.sigspatial.org/schedule/).

    Note: The poster presentation is mandatory. Papers without a poster presented during the Poster&Demo reception will be removed from the conference proceedings.

    The size of your poster should be no more than 36 inches wide and 48 inches tall, and in portrait orientation. We will provide you with tapes to hold the posters to walls. Please do not make a poster larger than the recommended size.

    The title of your poster should appear at the top in CAPITAL letters about 25mm high. On the left of the Title put your Poster ID or your Demo ID according to the list at the end of this document; Below the title put the author(s)' name(s) and affiliation(s).

    The flow of your poster should be from the top left to the bottom right. Use arrows to lead your viewer through the poster. Use color for highlighting and to make your poster more attractive. Use pictures, diagrams, cartoons, figures, etc., rather than text wherever possible. Try to state your main result in 6 lines or less, in lettering about 15mm high so that people can read the poster from a distance. The smallest text on your poster should be at least 9mm high, and the important points should be in a larger size.

    Make your poster as self-explanatory as possible. This will save your efforts for technical discussions. You may bring additional audio or visual aids to enhance your presentation. In order to help you interact with the people who attend the session, we suggest you to prepare a short talk of no more than 2 minutes to introduce your work to viewers.

  2. Demo Preparation: Only Demo paper authors need to prepare a demo in addition to the poster.

    The presenter should bring their own laptops and devices. Wireless Internet will be available throughout the conference venue. We will try to provide demo paper authors with access to electrical outlets, but please prepare for the scenario where they may not be available to you. If you definitely need power, contact us in advance such that we can arrange with the hotel! The presenter should prepare a demonstration of your system that you can periodically give to those assembled around your table throughout the reception.

  3. Poster and Demo Awards

    In order to encourage the authors of poster and demo papers to participate in the conference and introduce their work, the ACM SIGSPATIAL GIS organizing committee has instituted two awards for the poster and demo authors, which will be honored during the banquet.

    • Best Poster: The best actual Poster presented during the Poster&Demo Reception ("best" including an aesthetic sense).
    • Best Demo: The best Demo presented during the Poster&Demo Reception.

Please contact the Demo/Poster Co-Chairs if you have any questions. - Takahiro Hara, Osaka University, Japan - Jia Yu, Washington State University, USA - Liang Zhao, George Mason University, USA
