Online Summer Schools

SUNRISE Summer School

3-9 September 2022, Ragusa - Sicily - Italy

The SUNRISE summer school will be carried out in cooperation between ISPRS and SIFET (Italian Society of Photogrammetry and Topography) and will involve international students and professional surveyors with different backgrounds (e.g., archaeologists, architects, engineers, etc.) for the documentation of the archaeological site and the surrounding environment with several geomatics techniques.

The main objective is to provide the participants with a general overview of the state of the art of different geomatics techniques that can be used for the documentation of both the Cultural Heritage (emerged and submerged) and the environment in which it is located, constituting the coastal heritage.

Summer School on Resilient City -BUCEA (2022)

The Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture (BUCEA), in collaboration with ISPRS TC III and ISPRS Student Consortium, is happy to invite you to participate in the upcoming Summer School about the emerging methods and technologies on Resilient Cities.

The event will have experts from international universities and ISPRS for giving lectures to students and young technicians. The aim is to provide attendees with innovative practical and methodological knowledge and skills about the robustness, rapidity, redundancy, and resourcefulness of cities and their sustainable development plans.

In addition to the regular courses, a variety of cultural practice activities will be arranged, promoting multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary, and multi-level communication among students from different countries and regions.

IEEE GRSS Young Professionals (YP) & ISPRS Student Consortium (SC) Summer School (SS)

The IEEE GRSS Young Professionals (YP) & ISPRS Student Consortium (SC) Summer School (SS) are events organized jointly in Brazil and supported by the two main international organizations in the field of remote sensing:

• IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society: is a non-profit society, and its area of interest is the theory, concepts and scientific and engineering techniques applied to Remote Sensing of the Earth, ocean, atmosphere, and space. In addition, it is interested in the processing, interpretation, and dissemination of this spatial information.
• International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing: is a non-governmental organization that aims to develop international cooperation for the advancement of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing and its applications.

The IEEE/GRSS-YP and the ISPRS/SC-SS event occurred for the first time in 2015 in the dependencies of the Meteorological System of Paraná (SIMEPAR) and the Federal University of Paraná, both in Curitiba (PR). The first edition accounted for 80 active participants. The central topic was Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) applications and computer vision perspectives. After, in 2016, the event shifted to Presidente Prudente at the Sao Paulo State University (UNESP). The main topic was photogrammetry and remote sensing application using Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) [http://www2.fct.unesp.br/eventos/ypss/index.html]. The second edition counted for more than 100 participants and was supported by both FAPESC and CNPq.

In 2017, the IEEE/GRSS-YP and the ISPRS/SC-SS event shifted to Lages (Santa Catarina) at the Santa Catarina State University (UDESC) under to topic LiDAR Applications and Multivariate Statistics. This event was supported by FAPESC and accounted for 110 participants. One year later (2018), the fourth edition of the IEEE/GRSS-YP and the ISPRS/SC-SS moved to the north of the country and took place in Campo Grande (Mato Grosso do Sul) at the main campus of the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS) [https://grss-isprs.ufms.br/]. The event’s focus was artificial intelligence (deep learning) and was supported by FUNDECT, and accounted for more than 120 participants.

In 2019, the 5th edition of the IEEE/GRSS-YP and the ISPRS/SC-SS event occurred in collaboration with the 8th Symposium of Remote Sensing Applications for Defense (SERFA) in Sorocaba. This edition brought some news and approached defense and security applications using geoscience and remote sensing. Additionally, student activities such as “Pitch Battle” and “Hackathon” [http://serfa.ieav.cta.br/] were offered to aim to integrate students from high school and both graduate and undergraduate levels. The event accounted for more than 400 participants and was supported by CNPq.

In 2020, the 6th edition of the IEEE/GRSS-YP and the ISPRS/SC-SS was expected to occur in Belo Horizonte (Minas Gerais) at the Federal University of Minas Geris (UFMG) during the second week of October. However, due to the pandemic situation (COVID19), it occurred virtually and accounted for 12 (twelve) lectures delivered weekly from October to December. The moto was based on machine learning applications using multiple sources of remote sensing data [http://grss-isprs.dcc.ufmg.br/].

In 2021, the 7th edition of the IEEE/GRSS-YP and the ISPRS/SC-SS shall occur in the city of Chapeco during the last week of August. However, due to current pandemic restrictions (COVID19), this event shall also happen virtually. This year, the event will be organized by the Santa Catarina State University (UDESC) and the Communitarian University of Chapecó Region (UNOCHAPECO).

2021 Virtual Summer School on Smart City

The summer school is jointly organized by ISPRS Technical Commission III on remote sensing (ISPRS TC III), Beijing University of Civil Engineering and Architecture (BUCEA), and ISPRS Student Consortium (ISPRS SC), aims to promote the multi-cultural, multi-disciplinary, and multi-level communication among students and young technicians from different countries and regions. Experts from ISPRS and international universities will be invited to give lectures on innovative practical and methodological knowledge and skills on smarter construction, management, and sustainable development plan of cities. In addition to the regular courses, cultural practice activities, introduction of ISPRS Student Consortium, and policy on studying in BUCEA will also be arranged, to provide the participants potential opportunities to widen their professional networks. For more information, please go through the summer school programme.
