ISPRS WG I/10

Sensor Systems Verification, Benchmarks, Evaluation

Our Mission

ISPRS Working group I/10 aims to promote verification and validation of sensor systems which are understood as the process of checking that a product, service, or system meets specifications and that it fulfills its intended purpose. Working group promotes issues related to passive and active sensors from terrestrial-, air- and space-borne platforms. It promotes assessment of algorithms and procedures related to data evaluation and benchmarks. To this purpose, the WG organizes workshops and tutorials to exchange the latest developments on system verification, benchmarks and evaluation. This WG organizes also benchmarks and data acquisition and evaluation contest for sensors.
