STRUCTURE-FROM-MOTION IN EARTH SCIENCES

Two days workshop "Best Practises in Virtual Geology" plus one day of lectures and discussions on current SfM-related research in Earth observation, Geography and Geology.

Structure-from-Motion (SfM) has become a widely used method to reconstruct three-dimensional models from a variety of image sources - in Earth Sciences and beyond. Although the methods used in an SfM workflow are well-established, we see rapid developments of the method as well as many new applications. The Spring School "SfM in Earth sciences"  from 21-23 March, 2022, will address these new developments. It offers a platform for exchange for professionals and researchers.

SFM WORKSHOP 21-22 MARCH
PC Pool 1100, Carl-Zeiss-Straße 3, Jena
The Spring School offers a two-day workshop, run by Marko Vrabec from the University of Ljubljana. The workshop will focus on best practices for the SfM workflow with Agisoft Metashape. There will be plenty of space for questions from beginners and more advanced users alike. However, basic knowledge of the software is required.

CONFERENCE DAY 23 MARCH
HS 4, Carl-Zeiss-Straße 3, Jena & online
The conference day offers insight into cutting-edge research on the SfM method and into a wide range of applications. We are proud to have collected a set of interesting talks on a variety of topics, and there will be time for detailed discussion.
