Abstract:
The author briefly reviews the first regional cartography conference in Asia, AsiaCarto 2024, held in Hong Kong, PRC, in December 2024. The theme of the conference, “Cartography and Geospatial AI”, promotes research on using advanced technologies in cartography and geoinformatics. The summary of the conference`s scientific program describes the main activities and outcomes of the event. Totally, 125 papers were presented from more than 30 countries, including the Russian Federation. Research and application of innovative methods, promising approaches to cartographic design as well as understanding of space were most topical at the conference. The papers covered implementing advanced technology to solve the tasks of map design, urban planning and navigation, disaster prevention and management, improvement of technical and methodological aspects of cognitive mapping, and others. The success of AsiaCarto 2024 shows the importance of arranging additional international platforms for discussion and joint projects in all continents under the auspices of the International Cartographic Association. In the long term, AsiaCarto is planned to become a permanent series of biennial conferences to be held in different Asian countries. The aim is to develop cartography and geoinformation technologies in the Asia-Pacific region
