  • 3DGeo at the Geospatial Week 2019

    This week, the 3DGeo participated in the ISPRS Geospatial Week 2019 with two presentations among the sessions of the Laser Scanning Workshop with many interesting talks and poster. Presentations were given by Ashutosh Kumar in the Machine Learning Session and Katharina Anders in the Change Detection Session. Highlight: The work by Ashutosh Kumar on feature…

  • Paper on High-Frequency 3D Geomorphic Observation using Hourly LiDAR Time Series

    Can you imagine how much sand is being moved on the beach in the course of a week? Did you ever observe truckloads of sand being transported on the beach in the absence of storms and bulldozers? It is hardly possible to estimate to the naked eye, but can be quantified with permanent terrestrial laser…

  • ISPRS Innsbruck Summer School of Alpine Research 2015 in Obergurgl/Austria – Close Range Sensing Techniques in Alpine Terrain

    Together with colleagues from all over Europe we are organizing a Summer School of Alpine Research, which takes place from 5.7.2015-11.7.2015 in Obergurgl, Tyrol, Austria. Motivated students from geosciences/Earth sciences, environmental sciences, geomatics, GIScience, remote sensing, computer science, etc. will be working together in multidisciplinary teams to address challenges in Alpine Research using state of…

  • 3D-LiDAR and GIS for Gully Detection in Peru

    Cushion peatlands are typical features of the high altitude Andes in South America. Due to the adaptation to difficult environmental conditions, they are very fragile ecosystems and therefore vulnerable to environmental and climate changes. Peatland erosion has severe effects on their ecological functions, such as water storage capacity. Thus, erosion monitoring is highly advisable. Erosion…

  • New Video: Geography meets 3D High-Tech at the University of Heidelberg

    The students of this year’s LiDAR course “HydroChange 2013” present their research project on a multi-media website including a film documentary of their field work. Enjoy Geography meeting 3D High-Tech!
