Our mission

ISPRS working group I/4 provides a forum for the exchange of scientific and practical knowledge on airborne digital photogrammetric sensor systems. With multiple different airborne digital sensor systems now commercially operational, the challenge for the 2004–2008 period is in establishing commonly accepted procedures for calibration and testing of the multiple design concepts available (including line, single and multiple area array geometries), evaluating the performance of sensors and derived products relative to more established methods, integration with other sensors and in developing guidelines for new workflows. In addition, the emergence of the unpiloted aerial vehicle (UAV) as a sensor platform necessitates scientific investigation into the potential of light payload digital sensor systems for mapping purposes.
