GIS as a technology has come a long way, from the early adoption of technical wizardry to the ubiquitous, if unconscious use by the masses. The emergence of a GISociety is on its way through technological development, theoretical and empirical scientific research and inclusion of technology into education with increasing pedagogical justification. Defining new dimensions of hard- and software, brainware and orgware are all needed to further enhance the GISociety with new geospatial innovations.

This issue of the Geoinformatics Forum (www.gi-forum.org) links into these research areas. We are pleased to present work by researchers who actively contribute to the rising of geospatial innovations for society in theoretical, empirical, technical, and educational terms. This reflects that innovative alterations can only be created though close interaction among the domains of science, technology and education. Topics of the 2014 issue therefore include:
• Innovations in geospatial technologies
• Advances in GIScience
• Monitoring global change
• Geoinformation for public health
• Education with digital earth
• Spatial Citizenship education
• Geospatial learning environments

The book is aimed at researchers and practioners in the field of geoinformation with an academic, industrial or educational background.

Abstract:
In the past decades, climate changes became increasingly noticed. As a result of these changes, many extreme events such as flooding and droughts occur. These have an expected increasing impact on society and the environment. Especially the Alps are affected with a stronger increasing temperature compared to the rest of Europe. As a societal reaction, adaptation strategies and tools have been launched. Among the adaptation tools are web-based adaptation platforms, which are assumed to be important governance tools. They support knowledge brokerage, awareness raising, capacity building, and crosslevel coordination. Within this manuscript we identify available platforms and previous Alpine Space Programme projects and their interdisciplinary and cross-subject climate change related information. We analyse available portals and elaborate design and user requirements for the Climate Change Knowledge Inventory Platform developed here. We found that many previously developed platforms integrate similar information, but automated information exchange between platforms is scarce due to interoperability limitations. To avoid these double works of entering the same findings again, our developed catalogue service for the web solution ensures standard compliant information provision to enable interoperability and thus the exchange of climate change information across platforms.
