Geosensor Networks workshop by EuroSDR & ISPRS

Geosensor Networks workshop by EuroSDR & ISPRS is scheduled to be held from February 20 – 22, 2008 at Hannover, Germany.The workshop concentrates on recent developments and future directions of Geosensor Networks which relate both to geodetic and non-geodetic applications. The workshop aims at bringing together researchers, technology developers and users of the different involved disciplines and thus at providing a forum for fruitful discussions.

Invited experts from Europe and overseas will provide an overview of the state-of-the-art, the potential and the impact of Geosensor Networks. In addition to the presentations, there will be ample time to discuss relevant issues and open questions. The workshop language is English.

The hosts for this workshop are

• LGN the State Mapping Agency of Lower Saxony in Germany.
• Institite of Photogrammetryt and GeoInformation, Leibniz University of Hannover
• Institute of Cartography and Geoinformatics, Leibniz University of Hannover

Workshop topics
