Due to the emergence of information technology, maps are more useful and essential in our lives. Maps can be regarded as a basic need in this new services-based world of Internet and Ubiquitous Environments. This symposium focuses on rethinking the concept of maps, mapping and Cartography from theoretical, pragmatic and technical viewpoints in this changing information environment. Oral and poster presentations about web, mobile and ubiquitous mappings are invited. Please submit your papers and abstracts to the symposium CIU2015. A book with selected papers from the symposium will be published in the Springer Lecture Notes Series from the ICA. The end of March is a good season to meet together in Tokyo. See how Tokyo is changing in preparation for the 2020 Olympic Games.
