Conference Session: 24th Conference on International Interactive Information and Processing Systems (IIPS) for Meteorology, Oceanography, and Hydrology
88th Annual Meeting
American Meteorlogical Society
20-24 January 2008
New Orleans, LA

Preliminary programs, registration, hotel, and general information will be posted on the AMS Web site in late-September 2007. Papers for this conference are solicited on all aspects of IIPS related to Global Meteorological and Hydrological Service Updates; International Applications; Satellite IIPS and Applications; Radar IIPS and Applications; Interactive Processing Systems; Applications in Meteorology, Oceanography, Hydrology and Climatology; GIS Applications; Internet Applications and Cyberinfrastructure; Challenges in Data Access, Distribution, and Use; Advances and Applications in Transportation Weather, Surface and Aviation; and a new session on Virtual Globes.

The 24th IIPS will feature joint sessions. One joint session will be with the 12th Integrated Observing and Assimilation Systems for Atmosphere, Oceans, and Land Surface (IOAS-AOLS) Conference a session related to global environmental observing systems including, but not limited to, the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS), Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS), and Global Terrestrial Observing System (GTOS). Abstracts for this session may be submitted either to the IIPS or to the IOAS-AOLS conference. Another will be with the 17th Symposium on Education. Another joint session will be with the 20th Conference on Climate Variability and Change titled "Distributed Earth Science Information Systems." Abstracts for this session may be submitted either to the IIPS or to the Climate Variability and Change Conference. A new session with the 6th Conference on Artificial Intelligence Applications to Environmental Sciences. In addition there will be a special session on Linked Environments for Atmospheric Discovery (LEAD). Other joint sessions may be added as the planning for the 24th IIPS Conference planning progresses.
