ISPRS Workshop Laser scanning 2005 Enschede, September 12-14, 2005 |
|
Report
110 colleagues from 18 countries participated in the workshop. 10 companies
presented their latest developments in a small exhibition. A report on the
workshop will appear in the December issue of the ISPRS Highlights.
Workshop scope
Both airborne and terrestrial laser scanning (or lidar) are now well established
methods for the acquisition of precise and reliable 3D geo-information.
Beyond the primary tasks in digital terrain model generation,
airborne laser scanning has also proven to be a very suitable tool for general
3D modelling tasks and landscape analysis. At the same time, terrestrial laser
scanning is successfully used to acquire highly detailed surface models of
objects like building facades, statues, industrial installations. Despite large
differences in resolution and accuracy between airborne and terrestrial laser
scanner data, the research problems like automatic registration, feature
extraction, and 3D modelling are very similar.
The workshop, held at the ITC in Enschede, brought together an
interdisciplinary group of researchers, system developers, data providers
and end users. They discussed and demonstrated recent developments in laser
scanner data processing, the potential of the technique and future trends in
sensorics and data processing.
Scientific program
All papers in the workshop
programme have been selected on the bases of a double-blind review process
of full papers.
Company booths
Several companies presented their latest developments in a small exhibition.
The present companies were Fugro-Inpark (FLI-MAP division), MilanFlug,
Riegl, Terra digital, TerraImaging, TerraSolid, TopoSys, TopScan,
Trimble/GeoMETIUS and Zoller+Fröhlich.
