Special Sessions
Special sessions are very small and specialized events to be held during the conference as a set of oral and poster presentations that are highly specialized in some particular theme or consisting of the works of some particular international project. The goal of special sessions (minimum 4 papers; maximum 9) is to provide a focused discussion on innovative topics. All accepted papers will be published in a special section of the conference proceedings book, under an ISBN reference. The proceedings are abstracted/indexed in DBLP, Google Scholar, EI-Compendex, INSPEC, Japanese Science and Technology Agency (JST), Norwegian Register for Scientific Journals and Series, Mathematical Reviews, SCImago, Scopus and zbMATH. CCIS volumes are also submitted for the inclusion in ISI Proceedings.

Scope
The Internet of AI Things (IoAT) represents an emerging paradigm in which artificial intelligence is natively embedded within networked sensing infrastructures to enable autonomous, context-aware, and intelligent decision-making. In the geospatial domain, IoAT enables real-time integration of heterogeneous spatial sensors, remote sensing platforms, edge intelligence, and AI-driven analytics for understanding complex Earth and societal systems. This special session focuses on IoAT-enabled geo-spatial intelligence for sustainable development, environmental monitoring, urban resilience, and future Earth applications. By combining AI, sensing, spatial data analytics, and distributed intelligence, the session addresses challenges in geospatial data processing, and adaptive modeling. The session aims to bring together researchers and practitioners working across GIS, AI, IoT, and sustainability to advance intelligent, scalable, and actionable geo-spatial systems.
