GeoS 2009 was the third edition of the International Conference on
Geospatial Semantics. It was held in Mexico City, December 3-4,
2009. Within the last years, geospatial semantics has become a
prominent research ?eld in GIScience and related disciplines. It
aims at exploring strategies, c- putational methods, and tools to
support semantic interoperability, geographic information
retrieval, and usability. Research on geospatial semantics is a m-
tidisciplinary and heterogeneous ?eld, which combines approaches
from the g- sciences with philosophy, linguistics, cognitive
science, mathematics, and c-
puterscience.WiththeincreasingpopularityoftheSemanticWebandespecially
the advent of linked data, the need for semantic enablement of
geospatial s- vices becomes even more pressing. In general,
semantic interoperability plays a role if data are acquired in a
di?erent context than they are ?nally used for. This is the case
when shifting from the document Web to the data Web. The core idea
of linked data is to make information contributed by various
actors, with di?erent cultural backgrounds, and di?erent
applications in mind available to the public. Understanding,
matching, and translating between the concep- alizations underlying
these data becomes a key challenge for future research on
geospatial semantics. Thisvolumecontainsfullresearchpapers,
