FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT & CALL FOR PAPERS

UDMS, the Urban Data Management Society, organises international symposia at
various locations in
Europe in order to promote the development of information systems in local
government. An important
aim of UDMS has been to provide a forum for people to discuss new
approaches, to consider new
technologies and to share practical experiences in the field of urban data
management.
Traditionally the focus has been on urban applications. However, regional
and rural issues have
always been well represented at UDMS.

During the 21st Urban Data Management Symposium, held in Venice in 1999, it
became clear that UDMS
should broaden its scope. To an increasing degree urban development has its
effect on regional and
rural zones and vice versa. Especially in the densely populated parts of
Europe cities, industry
and infrastructure need more and more space. The impact of this expansion on
rural areas should be
studied and visualised using new spatial information technologies.
Therefore UDMS has decided to focus also on regional and rural aspects at
the beginning of a new
century.

>From an economic point of view land becomes more and more scarce and
therefore more and more
valuable. From the countries in Central Europe we learn how important it is
to solve the land
market problems in order to establish a free market economy. Since 1996 UDMS
has also paid
attention to developments in Central Europe. As membership of the European
Union is now the main
aim of these countries, it becomes even more important to discuss these issues.
