GIS (geography) journal impact factor

參考連接：http://nlpgis.blogspot.nl/2013/10/gis-journal-impact-factor.html

I was looking for impact factor information for GIS related journals and conferences. Finally, I came across a few resources and thereby summarize them here.

gis.stackexchange.com has a general discussion on the top tier conferences in the field of GIS. Based on my limited personal experience, there isn't really a designated category such as top tier conference that GIS may possibly falls in. This is totally different from computer science or even geoscience. I guess, this might be why GIS is in a relative awkward situation in the entire academic discipline.

Admittedly, GISers who want to excel in the academia really need some hard, and maybe extra work, to prove it. First, the IS part requires us to be able to understand fundamental computer science theories and principles and well aware of how to apply them into domains such as geography. Needless to say, geography is itself interdisciplinary therefore only know the geography domain is usually not enough. A secondary domain is often needed such as environmental science, public health, etc. Second, the G part imposes a requirement on us that we should also be able to compete with geoscientist in terms of knowledge about space, spatial relationships, spatial pattern, spatial organization and spatial processes.

Ok... let's get back to the topic of GIS journal impact factor. Here is an incomplete summary that I compiled from various sources online.

Geoforum is a leading international, inter-disciplinary journal publishing innovative research and commentary in human geography and related fields. It is global in outlook and integrative in approach. The broad focus of Geoforum is the organisation of economic, political, social andenvironmental systems through space and over time. Areas of study range from the analysis of the global political economy, through political ecology, national systems of regulation and governance, to urban and regional development, feminist, economic and urban geographies and environmental justice and resources management. Geoforum publishes research articles that are conceptually-led and empirically-grounded, critical reviews of recent research, and editorial interventions. It also features a highly-regarded 'themed issue' format that enables a focused exploration of emergent and/or significant areas of inquiry.
