ISPRS WG I/6

Orientation, Calibration and Validation of Sensors

Mission/Scope

ISPRS Working Group I/6 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. The Working Group promotes issues of orientation, calibration and validation related to passive and active sensors from terrestrial-, air- and space-borne platforms. It promotes the assessment of algorithms and procedures for data evaluation.

To meet these purposes, the WG organizes workshops and tutorials to exchange the latest developments on system verification, orientation, calibration and evaluation. WG’s plans also include creating a network of recognizable test fields that can be used for sensor validation to provide reliable and comparable results for research teams. This WG also organizes benchmarks and data acquisition and evaluation contests for sensors.
