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 Series enjoys international recognition as an upgrading seminar and a platform for the exchange of experience. It attracts since many years more than 500 participants from more than 60 countries.
The Photogrammetric Week Series is unique – the single track scientific program in the mornings is conducted by internationally recognized Keynote and Invited Speakers only, the well-selected OpenPhowo Partners demonstrate their latest technologies in Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformatics in the afternoons.
This year the lectures by experts from Germany and abroad will be focused on the following topics:
• Digital Mapping Camera Evolution
• Point Cloud Generation and Processing
• Towards 3D Augmented Worlds
The presentations will be in English. Sufficient time will be allocated for discussions.
The scientific program and the demonstrations will be supplemented by fringe events in the evenings to offer sufficient opportunity for personal contacts and to renew friendship.
In addition, a tutorial on “All About Point Clouds — Generation, Processing and Management” will be held by the Institute for Photogrammetry (ifp), University of Stuttgart, on Sunday, September 4, 2011.
