Indoor 3D is the latest in the series of workshops dedicated to research and developments in the area of indoor spatial information. Indoor 3D 2017 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from academia and industry involved in indoor mapping, positioning, navigation, 3D modeling, location-based services (LBS) and mobility.

With the rising urban population and the increasing complexity of cities as conglomerates of enclosed spaces, there is a growing demand for spatial and semantic information of indoor environments. Navigational assistance for disabled and elderly people, route planning for emergency management, smart facility maintenance, disaster monitoring and prevention, gaming and tourism are just several of the direct applications of indoor spatial information.

Traditional 2D floor plans do not meet the requirements of many indoor location-based applications. 3D elements such as staircases, ramps, stationary and dynamic obstacles are very important for effective and efficient management, security and guidance in indoor environments.

The workshop will be held in the ISPRS Geospatial Week 2017 and is hosted by the State Key Laboratory of Information Engineering in Surveying, Mapping and Remote Sensing (LIESMARS) at Wuhan University in parallel with a number of related geospatial workshops. The event will consist of two days of plenary sessions, combining keynotes, technical sessions and a poster session.

First Call for Paper – [available soon]

All manuscripts will be subject to a double-blind review process. The proceedings will appear as a volume of the ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences. Indoor 3D is part of the ISPRS Geospatial Week 2017.
