The IEEE Visualization Conference (VIS) is an annual conference on scientific visualization, information visualization, and visual analytics administrated by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on Visualization and Graphics. As ranked by Google Scholar's h-index metric in 2016, VIS is the highest rated venue for visualization research and the second-highest rated conference for computer graphics over all.[1] It has an 'A' rating from the Australian Ranking of ICT Conferences[2] and an 'A' rating from the Brazilian ministry of education. The conference is highly selective with generally < 25% acceptance rates for all papers.[3][4]
Location
The conference is held in October and rotates around the US generally West, Central and East.
