ISPRS Technical Commission I
Sensor Systems
Scope
With a view to the new ISPRS commission structure, Technical Commission I Sensor Systems External Link is concerned with the design, construction, characterization, calibration and use of imaging and non-imaging sensors, sensor systems and sensor networks for photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information science. This includes the development of new and innovative technological concepts, yet likewise models and methods to optimally exploit, calibrate and thoroughly evaluate new sensors, networks and single sensor components.
The recent years were characterized by rapid developments in various fields of sensor technology, design of smart sensor networks, small un-manned platforms (UAS) and new satellite imaging concepts or satellite constellations, respectively. This includes the sector of – often low-cost – industrial imaging sensors and likewise the development of highly sophisticated and specialized sensors for Earth Observation, thereby covering multiple modes of active or passive sensor technology and various scales of imaging.
