3D GeoInfo Conference 2010
From Conference website:
The 5th International 3D GeoInfo Conference 2010 aims at bringing together international state-of-the-art research and facilitating the dialogue on emerging topics in the field of 3D geo-information. In recent years, research has focused on improving 3D data acquisition technology through remote sensing, photogrammetry, laser altimetry techniques (LiDAR), and visualization technology (3D CAD and Virtual Reality (VR) system) for 3D urban environments. The resulting 3D models can be maintained in several types of 3D models: TEN (Tetrahedral Network), Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) models, Regular Polytopes, TIN Boundary representation and 3D volume quad edge structure, layered/topology models, voxel based models, 3D models used in urban planning/polyhedrons, and n-dimensional models including time. However, researchers still face many challenges today regarding the development of suitable data models representing topological relationships among 3D spatial objects in built environments.
Amongst others, the following subjects will be addressed by the conference:
- 3D geo information requirements (based on analysis of applications)
- 3D data acquisition, processing (LiDAR, photogrammetry) and object reconstruction
- 3D GIS and time / 4D models
- 3D in spatial databases
- 3D geometry and topology; levels of detail (scale, resolution)
- 3D visualisation, augmented and virtual reality
- 3D spatial analysis and simulation
- 3D indoor and outdoor navigation
- 3D city models and building (information) modeling (outdoor and indoor integration) and future aspects of city modelling
- 3D spatial data infrastructures and 3D data integration
- 3D and 4D earth system and geological modeling
- 3D applications (e.g., 3D cadastre, 3D utilities, 3D city and urban planning, disaster and risk management, environmental simulation, training simulation)
