Invitation

to the 6th JISDM in Karlsruhe, Germany, 7-9 April, 2025

On behalf of the organising commissions of FIG, IAG and ISPRS as well as the local organising committee, it is our great pleasure to invite you to the 6th Joint International Symposium on Deformation Monitoring (JISDM) in Karlsruhe, Germany, 7-9 April, 2025.

JISDM aims to bring together experts from the wide range of geodetic fields like photogrammetry, remote sensing, engineering geodesy and higher geodesy as well as from neighbouring fields at the interface of deformation monitoring. Here, the topicality of deformation monitoring is greater than ever: The effects of climate change as well as ageing infrastructures are just two examples in which deformation monitoring plays an overriding role in order to guarantee safety and sustainability.

The three days of symposium provide the opportunity to exchange expertise that covers the entire spectrum of deformation measurement and analysis: Latest developments with regard to sensor and measurement technologies as well as analysis strategies will be content of the symposium, just as the respective applications to natural phenomena and artificial objects.

We are looking forward to a productive and fruitful symposium and we are pleased to welcome you at JISDM 2025 in Karlsruhe!
