ISPRS seeks Social Media Manager
The International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS: www.isprs.org) is a non-governmental organization devoted to the development of international cooperation for the advancement of the photogrammetry, remote sensing and spatial information sciences and their applications. Its activities include managing events of various sizes such as conferences, symposia, and workshops, publishing journals, and encouraging research in the geospatial sciences. As a result, its success hinges on communicating effectively with a community of students as well as post-docs, early-career researchers, and established professionals in academia, government and the private sector, who are heavy users of information technology and use social media continually.

CIPA 2023 Symposium "Documenting, Understanding, Preserving Cultural Heritage: Humanities and Digital technologies for Shaping the Future"
Location: Florence, Italy
Dates: June 25-30, 2023
This event intends to combine scientific, technological and humanistic skills and promote interactions with the institutions responsible for conservation and restoration, with the aim of defining documentation systems that address the entire life cycle of artefacts, archaeological sites, historic buildings and landscapes, using new digital technologies. There is a need to develop risk reduction and preventive and sustainable conservation models that support cultural participation, accessibility and enhancement of cultural diversity and expression.

Webinar: Earth Observation and Digital Transformation: an outlook from Infrastructure Engineering | December 7, 2022
In this webinar talk, Dr. Jagannath Aryal from the Department of Infrastructure Engineering at the University of Melbourne will talk about the development of earth observation data and platforms, the practices, and their wider applications with a focus on digital infrastructure engineering. This presentation covers how digitalization revolutionized the way we live and design our cities from a digital infrastructure engineering perspective. It presents case studies illustrating how techniques for accurate and precise data capture, object recognition, and interpretation are used in digital city design to integrate new information into the city's digital models.
