Whither the International Society?

by Jon Mills
ISPRS Treasurer

The 21st Century font of all knowledge, Wikipedia, defines a society as “an organization that exists to promote an academic discipline or profession, or a group of related disciplines or professions” (1). With this definition in mind, the ISPRS could be considered as a society that exists to promote international cooperation for the advancement of photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences. Turning back to Wikipedia, the ISPRS entry (2) claims that the Society does this by:

  • Stimulating the formation of national or regional Societies of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing;
  • Initiating and coordinating research in photogrammetry and remote sensing and spatial information sciences;
  • Holding international Symposia and Congresses at regular intervals;
  • Ensuring worldwide circulation of the records of discussion and the results of research by publication of the International Archives of Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences;
  • Encouraging the publication and exchange of scientific papers and journals dealing with photogrammetry and remote sensing.

Taking these points in order, the demand for the formation of new national or regional societies in disciplines as mature as photogrammetry, remote sensing and the spatial information sciences is now rather limited. However, many national and regional bodies in our disciplines are considering merger with sister societies in order to ensure their longevity. ISPRS is equally available to support such amalgamations as it is to advise on the start-up of new national or regional learned societies. Can ISPRS assist its Ordinary Members in other ways?

In reality, ISPRS does not have a substantive enough budget to finance major research initiatives, but it does have a massive network of world class scientists and an established framework to facilitate their interaction and dissemination of outputs. Significant efforts are currently being devoted to encourage the Society’s Working Groups in each of the eight Commissions to focus more on the coordination of scientific endeavours such as benchmarking. Moreover, Council are investigating ways to help use the finite resource at its disposal to pump prime scientific initiatives, and has recently written in support of two major research proposals to the European Union. How can ISPRS help further stimulate funding for researchers in our disciplines?

One of the mainstays of the Society for generations has been its Symposia and Congress series. The current state of the global economy, however, meant that attendance at the most recent Congress in Melbourne was significantly down on previous events. As a result of feedback, the Society’s scientific meeting structure is currently undergoing a review and a new style of meeting will be trialled in Antalya, Turkey in November. Going forwards, how does ISPRS best ensure that its scientific meetings satisfy not only its presenting researchers, but also the needs of its exhibiting Sustaining Members?

Associated with the Symposia and Congress, the International Archives have a proud tradition stretching back to 1908. The growing demand for peer reviewed conference outputs, however, has stimulated the introduction of the International Annals to parallel the Archives, and Council is actively pursuing the indexing of both the Archives and the Annals in the most important bibliographic databases. Should all ISPRS meetings have mandatory full peer review in the future?

Finally, what is for many the Society’s flagship publication, the ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, continues to flourish. However, with the rise of open access publication, the Society has recently taken its first steps into this territory with the introduction of the ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information. Should further open access journals of this nature be introduced by the Society?

From this sample of recent and on-going developments, and the questions posed, it is hopefully evident that ISPRS is evolving to meet what Council deems are the requirements of a 21st Century international society. But does IPSRS Council have it right? A society exists because of its members and for its members, and can only be deemed beneficial, therefore, if the members are deriving what they want from their society. A recent written communication from the ISPRS Secretary General’s office to all ISPRS members asking for their feedback on Society activity, however, solicited a nil response. This could mean any number of things from the optimistic “glass full” perspective that all members are extremely happy with the functioning of the Society to the pessimistic “glass empty” view that nobody cares, and the membership is disenfranchised. The reality, as with most aspects of life, is probably the “glass half-full” situation where people are moderately satisfied, at least to the point of not complaining but equally not singing the praise of the Society. The point is that without a two way dialogue it is difficult for Council to ensure the Society stays relevant to the needs of its members.

So, please tell us, what would you like your International Society to do for you?

Valid Booklet Launch

     

Successful Valid Biook launch at UN Headquarters in Vienna

On 3 September 2013, ICSU-GeoUnions, JBGIS and UNOOSA/UN-SPIDER presented a new report which shows the economic, humanitarian and organizational benefits of applying Geoinformation to disaster management. The report "The Value of Geo-Information for Disaster and Risk Management (VALID): Benefit Analysis and Stakeholder Assessment" was edited by headed Orhan Altan and a team of Editors (Robert Backhaus, Piero Boccardo, Fabio Giulio Tonolo, John Trinder, Niels van Manen, Sisi Zlatanova). The publication aims to raise awareness and to help set priorities in research and development.

The VALID report is a follow-up publication to the Joint Board of Geospatial Information Societies (JBGIS) and UNOOSA/UN-SPIDER published ‘Geoinformation for Disaster and Risk Management – Examples and Best Practices’, a compilation of case studies that provides information on what can be done with Geoinformation in support of disaster and risk management – methods, systems, applications, experiences. It analyses cases and offers an expert stakeholder assessment.

This was a big success Speakers at the presentation included Mazlan Othman, Director of UNOOSA, Orhan Altan , George Gartner (PR of ICA and representative of JBGIS), Alik Ismail-Zadeh (SG of IUGG and representative of ICSU GeoUnions) as well as Robert Backhaus and Luc St-Pierre of UN-SPIDER.

TOF Range-Imaging Cameras

     

New book: TOF Range-Imaging Cameras

by Remondino, F., Stoppa, D. (Eds.), 2013
240 p., ISBN 978-3-642-27523-4
http://www.springer.com/earth+sciences+and+geography/remote+sensing/book/978-3-642-27522-7

In recent years, a new generation of active cameras, based on the Time-of-Flight (ToF) principle, has been developed. The main advantage with respect to other 3D measurement techniques is the possibility to acquire data at video frame rates and to obtain 3D point clouds (even of movable objects) without scanning and from just one point of view. So TOF range-imaging (RIM) is an emerging sensor technology able to deliver, at the same time, depth and intensity maps of the scene under observation. Featuring different sensor resolutions, RIM cameras serve a wide community with a lot of applications like monitoring, architecture, life sciences, robotics, etc.
ToF cameras are usually characterized by low sensor resolution (a few tens of thousands of pixels), the measurement accuracy is in the order of some centimeters and, depending on the working principle, ranges up to 30 m or 1500 m can be measured in the case of phase shift measurement or direct time of flight measurement respectively. Despite the recent development of Kinect-like triangulation-based sensors, the field of real-time ToF camera-based techniques is very active and covers many areas of the Geomatics field. The book, divided in 10 chapters, contains sensor-based sections as well as applications.
The book will bring together experts from the sensor and metrology side in order to collect the state-of-art researchers in these fields working with RIM cameras. All the aspects in the acquisition and processing chain are addressed, from recent updates concerning the photo-detectors, to the analysis of the calibration techniques, giving also a perspective onto new applications domains.
