IEEE VIS Community, thank you all for your patience as our conference organizing committee has been discussing the developing emergency situation for Tampa, with Hurricane Milton approaching. We hope for the safety of all during this severe weather event.

We wanted to provide a quick update on Hurricane Milton. We've been tracking Milton since it became a tropical depression on Friday evening and are watching the storm closely as it nears Florida. At present, we still hope to have VIS take place in-person at the Hilton Tampa.

🌴 We are very happy to announce that the IEEE VIS 2024 Conference will now take place at the wonderful Hilton Tampa Downtown!

Dear VIS Community, we have great news! After a busy weekend, we completed an emergency site visit at a new conference venue in the Tampa area. We are moving ahead with the new venue and will provide specifics once the contract is finalized, around the end of the week!
