Dear Colleague, We would like to welcome you at the ISPRS Geospatial Week 2015 that will be held in France in the South of France from 28 September to 3rd October 2015. The Geospatial Week is a bundle of already established conferences/workshops (under the auspices of ISPRS and/or other sister societies) but also emerging events. The following are already on-board: Silvilaser (Lidar applications for assessing forest ecosystems) Laserscanning (Point cloud acquisition and processing) CMRT (Object extraction for 3D city models, road databases and traffic monitoring) ISA (Image Sequence Analysis for object and change detection) ISSDQ (Geospatial Data quality) Gi4DM (Geoinformation fo disaster management) Geo-Hyper (Hyperspectral geospatial imagery and processing) Geo-VIS (Cognition and decision making with imagery and abstract maps) Geo-BigData (Processing and rendering of geospatial BigData) Geo-UAV (UAVs for geospatial data collection) If your scientific community wants to contribute to the Geospatial Week with an additional worshop, please submit your proposal (via our call for workshop link) before 3rd December. All information can be found on our website: www.isprs-geospatialweek2015.org In addition to the website, we will issue a monthly newsletter with all updated news. Let us all make this event yours! Best regards. Nicolas Paparoditis Chair of the ISPRS Geospatial Week 2015 info@isprs-geospatialweek2015.org GEOSPATIAL FLYER 10 x 15

************* SPIE Optical Metrology ************* Videometrics, Range Imaging and Applications XIII ************* 22-25 June 2015 ************* Munich, Germany (With apologies for any cross postings.) For more than two decades the Videometrics conferences have been providing a unique forum for vision metrology, photogrammetry, computer vision and image analysis researchers, developers and practitioners to present the latest advances in precise 3D measurement and accurate modeling from imaging and range sensors. The 13th edition of the Videometrics conference will focus on image and range data processing and modeling in applications such as rapid product development, monitoring, precision metrology, deformation analyses, 3D digitizing, material and component testing, human body modeling, surveillance, industrial inspections, cultural heritage applications and medicine. Videometrics will be held within SPIE Optical Metrology, the premier conference in Europe that brings together users and researchers to discuss the latest inventions and applications in the field of optical metrology. Optical Metrology will contain six conferences that focus on new optical principles and systems for metrology, videometrics and machine vision with applications in industrial design, production engineering, process monitoring, maintenance support, biotechnology, vehicle navigation, multimedia technology, architecture, archaeology and arts. Optical Metrology is co-located with the Laser World of Photonics 2015, providing delegates with access to a huge exhibit of the latest technology associated with lasers and optical systems, and offering an excellent opportunity to connect with engineers, researchers and developers from Europe and beyond. In 2015 Videometrics will feature three excellent invited speakers who will present the latest algorithms and techniques in optical metrology and tracking. For…

Dear Colleagues, long-time Participants of PhoWo, dear Friends, Ladies and Gentlemen, Have you ever participated in a "Boutique" Conference in photogrammetry, computer cience and geoinformatics? If YES, this is a chance to re-visit Stuttgart, if NO, this would be an excellent opportunity to participate in a scientific conference, which is quite different from all the others for the first time. It is with great pleasure to invite you to the 55. Photogrammetric Week (PhoWo'15), held in Stuttgart, Sept 07 to 11, 2015. The Photogrammetric Week Series is famous for delivering always an update in theories, algorithms, and workflows, in photogrammetry, computer vision and geoinformatics. Many paradigm changes were discussed in the past  - the next challenges will be  building bridges to computer science and computer graphics. Therefore PhoWo 15 will contribute to "Excellence in Photogrammetry, Computer Science and Geoinformatics". Every Photogrammetric Week event is a single-track symposium with carefully selected and internationally acknowledged keynote and invited speakers in the mornings and hands-on demonstrations of the Open PhoWo Partners in the afternoons. There is a social program without any extra costs - all is included in the reasonable PhoWo fee. You are curious? Please feel free to study the details of the enclosed first announcement and visit our web pages: www.ifp.uni-stuttgart.de/phowo/index.en.html . It will be a pleasure to meet you in Stuttgart in September 2015. Best regards Yours Dieter Fritsch PhoWo Organizer since 1992 Prof Dr Dieter Fritsch Inst Photogrammetrie Univ Stuttgart T +49 711 6858 3386 F +49 711 6858 3297 Email: dieter.fritsch@ifp.uni-stuttgart.de Phowo-2015-Invitation.pdf

Dear Colleague, Let me kindly inform you that the conference chairs of PIA15+HRIGI15 cordially invites you to submit a paper to the joint ISPRS event: PIA15 - Photogrammetric Image Analysis HRIGI15 - High resolution Earth Imaging for Geospatial Information Munich, Germany - March 25-27, 2015 http://www.pia15.tum.de Call for Papers: Automated extraction of objects from remotely sensed data is an important topic of research in Computer Vision, Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing, and Geoinformation Science. In order to discuss recent developments and future trends in research in automatic object extraction and their influence on sensors and processing techniques, the two well known ISPRS workshops "Photogrammetric Image Analysis" (PIA) and "High resolution earth imaging for geospatial information" (HRIGI, also known as the ISPRS-Hannover Workshop) will be held as a common event for the first time. The location of the event will be Munich, Germany. Scope: While in the past PIA specialised on the automatic exploitation of the image content, the strongest side of HRIGI was the geometric processing of aerial and in particular of space imagery. Realising that both areas - geometry and semantics - can significantly support each other when considered together in photogrammetric image exploitation, the two events will be organised under a common roof held at Technische Universitaet Muenchen (TUM) in March 2015. At the same time they will keep their identity, as the meeting will be organised as two parallel workshops with common plenary sessions and common proceedings. The aim of the common event is to seek, exploit and deepen the…
