International Conference ICAIGIS 2025
Artificial Intelligence, Geomatics, and Interdisciplinary Sciences
Istanbul, Turkey | November 26–28, 2025
Conference Introduction
In the midst of the rapid transformations shaping our world today, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer merely a technical tool, but a driving force reshaping scientific, economic, and social systems. From this perspective, the International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Geomatics, and Interdisciplinary Sciences (ICAIGIS 2025) serves as a comprehensive academic platform that bridges deep thought with intelligent application, and scientific vision with technological innovation.
This prestigious international event aims to deepen discussions on the accelerating intersections between AI, geomatics, and applied sciences. Recent advancements in digital analysis and big data have demonstrated that AI is central to addressing complex challenges such as smart city management, climate change monitoring, disease diagnosis, and ecosystem analysis.
Scientific experiences have proven that the integration of AI and geomatics not only enhances the accuracy of modeling and analysis but also opens new horizons for understanding spatial and temporal phenomena from a more holistic perspective. The conference seeks to explore these creative synergies and foster interdisciplinary collaboration across fields such as engineering, medicine, energy, agriculture, environment, and the social sciences and humanities.
ICAIGIS 2025 is not limited to presenting advanced research—it aims to develop a multidimensional intellectual vision, rooted in the convergence of algorithmic analysis, geographic reasoning, and cross-disciplinary scientific thinking, in alignment with the transformations of the digital world and in service of development and innovation goals.
The conference reflects a deep commitment to promoting joint research, encouraging collaborative innovation, and expanding the horizons of knowledge beyond traditional academic boundaries—building intellectual bridges across generations, cultures, and scientific perspectives.
Conference Objectives
- Promote integration between AI, geomatics, and interdisciplinary sciences, including the humanities and social sciences, to build comprehensive insights into complex phenomena in both human and natural environments.
- Explore the practical applications of AI in strategic fields such as health, energy, agriculture, education, the environment, and communities, with a focus on data-driven solutions to real-world challenges.
- Address ethical and legal issues related to AI technologies—such as privacy, transparency, accountability, and algorithmic bias—through diverse philosophical and social approaches.
- Strengthen dialogue between researchers in technical and human sciences to develop AI tools that are more culturally and socially aware and more capable of serving communities fairly and effectively.
- Bridge the gap between academic research and industrial/public policy applications by engaging both public and private sectors, facilitating the transfer of innovation from lab to real life.
- Provide a dynamic academic environment for forming long-term international partnerships, uniting expertise from diverse backgrounds to produce cross-disciplinary, transnational research projects.
- Empower emerging researchers through workshops, training sessions, and student/PhD presentations aimed at enhancing research skills and critical, creative thinking.
