You are invited to “Geospatial Data and Geovisualization: Environment, Security and Society”. This exciting conference is a special joint Symposium of the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) Technical Commission IV, “Geodatabases and Digital Mapping” and AutoCarto 2010. Sponsored by the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) and the and Geographic Information Society (CaGIS), this Symposium will include special partici- pation from ISPRS, the International Cartographic Association (ICA), and the Interna- tional Geographical Union (IGU).

Geospatial researchers, professionals and students from around the world will gather in Orlando, Florida on November 15-19, 2010 to share knowledge and experience on all Marguerite Madden aspects of geographic (GIScience) with particular focus on the use of geospatial techniques, analysis and in support of our environment and societal benefi ts.

One registration will allow you to participate in all ASPRS, ISPRS and AutoCarto Tech- nical Sessions and spend time in the exhibit hall to interact with vendors and view state-of-the-art geospatial technology. Registrants will be provided with combined pro- ceedings and invited to joint social functions. Four General Sessions will highlight an array of speakers from Presidents of the premiere international geospatial societies to top researchers, successful practitioners, motivated educators and inspirational students and young professionals.

We have organized this symposium as a collaboration of professional societies that nor- mally convene independently in different corners of the world. In these challenging eco- nomic times, we are seeking solutions to limited travel funds, overbooked professional E. Lynn Usery and personal lives, ever growing conference obligations and the desire to decrease our geospatial carbon footprint. This joint symposium addresses all of these concerns and offers the additional opportunity for cross-fertilization and discovery. Under the wide umbrella of this symposium you will fi nd experts in GIS, remote sensing, photogram- metry, GPS, cartography and geovisualization.

Orlando, Florida offers beautiful weather in November and is the home of Walt Disney World Resort, Universal Studios and Sea World. Bring your family for a well-deserved vacation, meet old friends, make new connections, enrich your geospatial career and help promote GIScience for the benefi t of environment, security and society.

Digital airborne sensors have matured over the last few years and have been gaining acceptance by the mapping community. This is evidenced by: 1) the enhancement of current remote sensing systems by the manufacturers; 2) the manufactur- ers introducing new sensors into the marketplace that address the needs of a particular sector of the user market not previously addressed; 3) and the amount of data being collected. In many cases, the collection system may have methods that are designed to help the data collec- tors and current owners of the data may be able to obtain enough information to use the data. However, the quality and long term usefulness of the acquired data in comparison to other data types may be an issue. In addition, IADIWG and Lidar quality assurance processes will be emphasized. This session will have four panels with short presentations and discussions. All information will be made available on the PDAD web site. — November 16th — November )DOO 3ROLF\ &RQ HUHQFH \ 1 Y U

Saleh, Global Sensing Group, USA Cross-platform integration of traditional remote sensing imaging systems with other non-im- aging monitoring networks, such as seismological detectors and ocean wave sensors, would certainly provide the means for an early warning system for large scale natural (such as the Haiti and Chile earthquakes) and man-induced disasters (such as nuclear explosions). Such a geospatial sensing system would possibly be adequate to avert the enormous humanitarian, economic and environmental impact a broad-scale disaster may bring about. The premise for this Special Session is that the integration of surface (land and water) based sensors, with airborne and space-borne systems, can provide an enhanced capability in comprehensive monitoring, modeling, validation, and early warning. This panel will discuss the concept of Multi-Platform Sensing and Sensor Networks, the technological issues, operational aspects, bottlenecks, and the road ahead.
