ICC FAQs
Delegates
How many delegates can I expect at my ICC?
It depends... on the city and country, for example. At recent ICCs, there were at least 800 delegates. Official reports, statistics, lists of scholarships, rewards, etc. of previous ICCs and RCCs are recorded on the website of the International Cartographic Association, go to 'ICA conferences and events' on the top menu.
What is the split between local and international delegates?
The biggest group of delegates is usually from the local host country. You can probably count on 300-400 international delegates, and the rest will be from your local host country.
Scientific programme
When should we send out the first call for papers?
The earlier the call is sent out, the better. This gives time to plan submissions and funding to attend the conference.
