International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing Working Group IV / 9: , Houston 2003 abstracts

Introduction
The ISPRS-ET Working Group organized a Workshop/Symposium "Advances in Planetary Mapping 2003" that was hosted by the Lunar and Planetary Institute (LPI) in Houston, on Saturday, March 22, 2003, immediately following the 34th LPSC. Previous workshops held at University College London in 1998 and Caltech in 1999 focused on "Mapping of Mars" but we believe the many cartographic applications of data from recent missions to other bodies warrant broadening the scope of this meeting. The Planetary Mapping 2001 Virtual Workshop included abstracts on Venus, Earth's Moon, Mars, Galilean Satellites, and asteroid 433 Eros. The most recent Extraterrestrial Mapping Workshop, held as part of ISPRS Commission IV Symposium, included abstracts and posters on Mars and Comet Borrelly. As can be seen in the following 32 abstracts a wide range of planetary bodies are covered including Mercury, Venus, Mars, Saturnian Satellites, and icy satellites in general; and different techniques that apply to planetary mapping in general are being developed, such as photoclinometry, computer information systems, and feature extraction.

Workshop Summary

Workshop participants have a lively discussion about an abstract

The Workshop "Advances in Planetary Mapping 2003" was held at the Lunar and Planetary Institute and was highly successful. Nearly 60 people from North America, Europe, and Asia registered for and attended the workshop, and at the end of a very full day 15 hardy souls adjourned to the nearby Crazy Cajun restaurant to continue a lively discussion over beer and local specialties including "gator bites" and gumbo. Altogether, 15 talks on planetary topomapping and control, cartography, and GIS were presented, including a live photoclinometry (shape-from-shading) software demonstration and a grapefruit-based illustration of a new type of highly interrupted map projections. The 25 minutes available for each presentation allowed for enthusiastic questioning of the speakers. About 15 posters were also presented, including several that expanded on the material presented orally. The Great Room of the LPI provided a spacious and pleasant setting for these posters as well as for a catered lunch and refreshment/discussion breaks.

Discussion on a finer point of an abstract

We are encouraging those participants who submitted short abstracts before the Workshop to contribute papers up to 6 pages in length as permitted by the ISPRS (Guidelines for Authors Preparing Manuscripts for ISPRS Sponsored Meetings). As we have done after previous workshops, we will also post slide presentations or posters contributed by the speakers. Papers, slides, and posters will be posted in PDF format and can be submitted in that form by email to Mark Rosiek [mrosiek@usgs.gov]. Please contact Mark for guidance on other file formats that we can convert to PDF.
