When: 13 – 16 October 2015

Where: The Banff Centre, Banff, Alberta, Canada

Location information of devices in indoor environments has become a key issue for many emerging applications. However, there is no overall and easy solution. Therefore, IPIN brings together experts in electronics, surveying and informatics. IPIN 2010, organised by ETH Zurich, gathered over 450 participants, from academia and industry, and showed to be the forum of excellence to join researchers, system developers, and service providers in the area of indoor positioning and navigation. With hundreds of participants, both from academia and industry, it proved there is a large and very active community working in indoor positioning and navigation worldwide. Subsequent IPIN conferences confirmed the vitality of this research community, and took place at Guimarães, Portugal (2011), Sydney, Australia (2012), Montbéliard, France (2013), and Busan, Korea (2014). IPIN 2015 will be held in Banff, Alberta, Canada.

The conference encourages the submission of contributions in one or more of the following Indoor Positioning and Indoor Navigation topics:

User Requirements
Hybrid IMU Pedestrian Navigation & Foot Mounted Navigation
Human Motion Monitoring
Health and Wellness Applications
High Sensitivity GNSS, Indoor GNSS, Pseudolites
RTK GNSS with handheld devices

We invite you to submit your work in one of the following formats: short paper (up to 4 pages), poster (up to 2 pages), or demonstration (template available at the conference web site). Accepted short papers and posters will be included in the conference proceedings (electronic publication with ISBN).

After review and acceptance, authors of the short papers will invited to submit a full paper (up to 10 pages) for expert peer review before the conference. Accepted short and full papers will be included in the conference proceedings and accepted full papers will be published electronically in the IEEE Xplore database.

All submissions, from posters to full papers, will be peer reviewed.
