Expedición covers both a geographic or scientific expedition (la expedición al Polo Sur) and the administrative sense of 'issuance' or 'dispatch' (expedición de documentos = issuing of documents). The accent on -ción follows the standard rule for nouns ending in that suffix. The related adjective is expedicionario.
