Dear Colleagues and friends,

On behalf of the French Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (SFPT) and of French organizing committee, it will be our great pleasure to host you for the XXIVth ISPRS Congress in my home town of Nice from 6-11 June 2022. Nice, the cosmopolitan and multicultural capital of the French Riviera, is the ideal place to host an unforgettable ISPRS Congress. Nice is an outstanding location between sea and mountains where culture and heritage meet with the cutting edge technology of Sophia Antipolis, the French Silicon Valley.

Half a dozen exciting keynotes are scheduled and will give an overall status and trends of the science and technologies in all the areas of ISPRS. More than 1500 papers will be presented in the various scientific tracks and sessions over the week. In addition to these presentations, the participants will also have the possibility to interact and network face to face with the authors in poster sessions.  In order to help the registered participants to choose the sessions and the presentations to build their own program during the week, pre-recorded video presentations of the papers will made accessible before the beginning of the event through the digital platform of this event. These videos and the recordings of all live sessions will enrich the new ISPRS media library and will be made Open-Access three months after the event. 

This congress also integrates a strong technology track enabling the industry to present in oral presentations its latest innovations and technologies in complement of a large industry exhibition that will gather the major players of the geospatial business. A geospatial prospective forum will also address hot topics of our community in order to draw recommandations.

This rich program will enable the participants to remain at the state-of-the-art on the currents trends in science, technology & business and will also give them opportunity to meet and network with a very large number of experts, and to cross-fertilize with colleagues coming from neighboring fields!

With our strict hygiene concept, we are confident that we will be able to safely host you in Nice to allow you to network and to meet old and new colleagues and friends. We will nevertheless offer remote participation for those who prefer not to travel.

The French organizing team is really looking forward to meet you in person in Nice!

Best regards,

Nicolas Paparoditis – Congress Director
