As part of the GeoAI and Deep Learning Symposium at the 2026 AAG Annual Meeting in San Francisco, California we have a call for papers for sessions entitled "Geosimulation and Its Emerging Directions with AI"
Call for Papers:
Simulating past, present, and future events can empower humans to understand the composition and interactions in complex systems and explain their emergence and evolution from bottom up. In practice, geosimulations constitute a powerful tool in engaging different stakeholders, exploring what-if scenarios, and evaluating alternative policy outcomes.
We invite interdisciplinary works for the exploration and understanding of complex social and environmental processes by means of computer simulation. We focus on all aspects of simulation and agent societies, including multi-agent systems, agent-based modeling, microsimulation, artificial intelligence (AI) agents, and the integration of Generative AI with simulation.
As GenAI is impacting all aspects of our lives, we are wondering how it will impact geospatial simulations. How do multimodal large language models (MLLMs) help with agent-decision making in the form of generating agent-personas or scheduling agent activities? Can MLLMs reduce coding barriers for beginners? Will GenAI lead to a new generation of modeling toolkits? What are the challenges brought by MLLMs in model design, validation, and computing costs?
We welcome a wide range of studies exploring simulation theories, data, methodologies, and frameworks. We are also interested in case studies applying geosimulations to address real-world challenges. Potential topic areas include, but are not limited to:
- Geosimulation Models and Applications
- Conceptual Geosimulation Models
- General-Purpose Geosimulation Framework
- AI and Geosimulation
- Agents’ Behaviors, Decision-making and AI Agents
- Data Generation Framework
- Validation and Verification for Geosimulation
- Digital Twins
- Microsimulation
- Multi-agent Systems
