54th Photogrammetric Week in Stuttgart

The Institute for Photogrammetry of the University of Stuttgart and the OpenPhoWo partners are inviting photogrammetry professionals to the 54th Photogrammetric Week in Stuttgart, Germany, from 9 to 13 September 2013.

This regular event was initiated by Carl Pulfrich as a “vacation course in photogrammetry” in 1909; since 1973, it has been held at the University of Stuttgart. Today, the Photogrammetric Week enjoys international recognition as an upgrading seminar and a platform for the exchange of experience.

Due to their close connection with photogrammetry, the aspects of geoinformatics have firmly established themselves among the topics of this event, which has been directed by professor Dieter Fritsch since 1992.

The lectures by experts from Germany and abroad will be focused on the following topics:

• Data Collection From Air, Space and Ground — An Update

• Advanced Methods of Computer Vision and Photogrammetry

• Solving the Future Mapping Problem, All About 3D Modelling

The presentations will be in English. Sufficient time will be allocated for discussions.

The programme will be supplemented with demonstrations and comments on practical examples in the afternoons. The fringe events will offer sufficient opportunity for personal contacts. In addition, a tutorial on “All About 3D Modelling — From 2.5D Meshes to 3D Virtual Reality Models” will be held by the Institute for Photogrammetry (ifp) on Sunday, 8 September.
