CATCON9 2026 @ TORONTO Congress
CATCON is the name of a contest for Computer Assisted Teaching Contest organized by the ISPRS Commission V. The ninth CATCON9 has been organized at the XXV ISPRS Congress, Toronto, Canada, July 9, 2026. The main objective of the contest is to promote the development and dissemination of effective, educational and user-friendly –
- multimedia tutorials
- simulations and virtual environments
- information packages or data sets
- application software
designed and used specifically for computer assisted teaching in photogrammetry, remote sensing or spatial information science.
In general, the CAT tutorial, software or data set is preferred to be non-commercial and provided to users
without licence charges or other fees for not-for-profit use. Since many ISPRS attendees have been interested in
this contest at three previous Congresses, this is a very good opportunity to show the effectiveness and
utility of your CAT product.
