GeoSim 2018 workshop report the 1st ACM SIGSPATIAL international workshop on geospatial simulation

Geospatial simulation is a powerful tool for many disciplines including urban analytics, social science and meteorology to understand, explain, and predict overly complex natural and human-made systems. For instance, hurricane simulation has been used to predict hurricane paths and to make a decisions such as evacuation plans. Traffic simulation have enabled us to forecast traffic congestion in cities around the world.
