The Sixth International Symposium on Spatial Databases (SSD'99) was
held in Hong Kong, China, July 20-23, 1999. This is a \ten-year
anniversary" edition. The series of conferences started in Santa
Barbara in 1989 and continued - annually in Zu ]rich(1991),
Singapore (1993), Portland, Maine (1995), and Berlin (1997). We are
very pleased that on this occasion Oliver Gun ] ther, one of the
initiators of the conference in 1989, agreed to give an
\anniversary talk" in which he presented his view of SSD in the
past as well as in the future ten years. SSD is well established as
the premier international conference devoted to the handling of
spatial data in databases. The number of submissions has been
stable during the last years; in 1999 there were 55 research
submissions, which is exactly the same number as for the last
conference in Berlin. Out of these, the programcommittee accepted17
excellent papers for presentation.In addition to the \anniversary
talk," the technical program contained two keynote presen- tions
(Christos Papadimitriou, Timos Sellis), four tutorials (Markus
Schneider, Leila De Floriani and Enrico Puppo, Jayant Sharma, and
Mike Freeston), and one panel. The papers included in these
proceedings re?ect some of the current trends in spatial databases.
Classical topics such as spatial indexing or spatial join continue
to be studied, as well as interesting new directions such as
including generalization/scale in indexing or treating multiway
instead of binary joins."
