Editorial: Making GIScience Research More Open Access

Abstract

This is the editorial for the special issue on "data-intensive geospatial computing", which I guest edited with the International Journal of Geographical Information Science (Taylor & Francis). As remarked in the editorial, the special issue is particularly special in the sense that all source and data are published together with the published papers. This editorial elaborates on scholarly communication, with particular attention to publishing data alongside papers and the emergence of open access journals, in order to make our research more open access.
