  • 3D micro-mapping: Towards assessing the quality of crowdsourcing to support 3D point cloud analysis

    Crowdsourcing has been widely applied to extract information from 2D geodata sources such as satellite imagery. In this new study published in the ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing we apply this technique to the growing field of 3D point cloud analysis. This work has been conducted in our 3D-MAPP Project which was funded…

  • 3D-MAPP talk at 9th “Dresdner Flächennutzungsymposium”

    The “Dresdner Flächennutzungssymposium” is an annual event aimed at fostering the discussions about current devolepment regarding land use changes in Germany. During two days experts from government agencies, private companies and research institutions come together and elaborate the latest trends in different session. This years symposium took place from May 3-4. Almost all presentations covered…

  • DGPF Annual Meeting 2017 – Visual impressions

    Three talks from GIScience Heidelberg were given at the Annual Meeting 2017 of the DGPF (German Society for Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformation) on 9 March 2017. Thanks a lot to Benni, Tomás and Sebastian for the very nice talks. More technical infos on the presented research can be found in the previous blog post…

  • DGPF Annual Meeting 2017 – Three presentations from GIScience Heidelberg

    At the Annual Meeting 2017 of the DGPF (German Society for Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Geoinformation) GIScience Heidelberg will contribute three talks on 9 March 2017. Citizen Science in Schulen: Entwicklung von 3D-MicroMapping zur Klassifikation von 3D-Punktwolken (Research Project: 3D-MAPP) The Heidelberg LiDAR Operations Simulator HELIOS as a Supporting Tool for Capturing and Preserving Cultural…

  • 3D-TAIGER Summer School 2016 in Heidelberg

    From 5-7 September 2016 the GIScience Heidelberg Group hosted a summer school within the collaboration and exchange project 3D-TAIGER (’Multi-Source 3D Geoinformation Extraction for Improved Management of Forest and Natural Hazards – Collaboration between TAIwan and GERmany’). The summer school is a follow-up of the kickoff meeting in Tainan in April this year. The first…

  • Crowdsourced Classification of 3D Point Clouds

    Within the 3D-MAPP project we currently developed a workflow and a web based tool, that allow volunteers (and experts) to classiffy 3D point clouds in just a few seconds. The approach combines the point cloud interpretation skills of humans and the scalability of crowdsourcing. Furthermore, crowdsourced geographic information can be of high value to automated…

  • 3D-MicroMapping of Big 3D Geo-Datasets in the Web (3D-MAPP)

    Our new research project 3D-MAPP develops a web-based methodology to obtain digital geodata via the combination of data analysis by human and machine. Through a quick and easy-to-use 3D Web visualization users are able – in a few seconds – to solve 3D micro mapping tasks, which can hardly or even not be solved by…
