Augmented Reality (AR) is a means of blending computer generated objects or labels with reality so that both appear to be a part of your natural environment. AR is beginning to mature as a subject field with applications moving from pure academic research into industrial and potential consumer areas. In recent years geographic data representing real world features has increasingly been used for AR applications. In addition, geospatial technologies have established many new services and applications including navigation, decision support and modelling of the surrounding environment from which mobile AR and location-aware computing can now benefit in order to generate compelling spatiotemporal applications.

The International Workshop on Mobile Geospatial Augmented Reality aims at bringing together researchers, developers, users and practitioners carrying out research and development in this field. The workshop will provide a forum for original research contributions and practical experiences of mobile AR, geospatial technologies and geoinformatics, and mobile games, fostering interdisciplinary discussions in all aspects of these three fields, and will highlight future trends in this area. The workshop will be organized in a way to promote networking between the participants, to initiate and favour discussions regarding cutting-edge technologies in the field, to exchange research ideas and to promote international collaboration.
