"Close range morphological measurement for the Earth sciences" session at AAG

The International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) Working Group V6 is promoting a session at the April, 2011 Association of American Geographers (AAG) annual meeting in Seattle on "Close range morphological measurement for the Earth sciences". This session emphasizes digital photgrammetry and terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) applications in the Earth sciences:

Geomorphologist and Earth Scientists are making increased used of digital photogrammetry and laser scanning to quantify morphological change. The International Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) Working Group V/6 (isprsv6.lboro.ac.uk) aims to promote, coordinate and develop expertise in this area. This session provides an opportunity for scientists to share experiences and develop their expertise using these rapidly evolving and increasingly cost effective technologies. Activities are of interest to those involved in 3D reconstruction for: geomorphology, earth science, hydrology, agriculture, forestry, glaciology, geology, surface roughness and climate change studies.

The AAG abstract deadline is October 20, 2010.
