Overview

The 16 Australasian Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Conference will be held in conjunction with the ISPRS Congress. This is a unique opportunity for ARSPC delegates to attend the ISPRS Congress, held every 4 years. It is the largest remote sensing and photogrammetry conference in the world.

With the support of the ISPRS Technical Commissions, we will offer delegates eight exciting days of tutorials, workshops, presentations and technical tours. And of course there will also be an engaging social programme that will be a mix of cultural and sporting events. Whether you prefer an evening at theatre or a taste of Australian rules football, there will be something for you to enjoy. The social programme will be just a small sample of the highlights of Melbourne, Victoria and Australia.

The main technical programme will consist of plenary sessions, oral presentation sessions with up to nine parallel streams, and poster sessions. Each of the eight Commissions can have an oral presentation stream in every session, and the ninth parallel stream will be reserved for additional events, such as special sessions, the Computer Aided Teaching Contest (CATCON) and the Australasian Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry conference.

Technical Commissions will have the option of a double blind peer review of de-identified full papers, or acceptance based on abstracts only, with all submissions and reviews conducted online. Some Commissions may opt to have both peer reviewed and professional paper streams. Peer reviewed papers will be clearly identified in the proceedings.

The congress in Melbourne will be the first to use electronic posters that allow dynamic content. Poster sessions will be very different. Authors will have the opportunity to make a brief presentation to the session, then discuss their poster with individual delegates at poster "pods".

All in all there will be something in the ISPRS 2012 Congress programme to excite or delight everyone. You will enjoy the experience!
