Scope of PIA15 + HRIGI15
---
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.
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 synergies
between geometry and semantics, and to give the two scientific
communities the possibility to discuss with and to learn from each
other. The joint event addresses experts from research, government, and
private industry. It consists of high quality papers, and provides an
international forum for discussion of leading research and technological
developments as well as applications in the field.
