1.4 Length
All the manuscripts, those submitted as hard copies and
those submitted electronically, (with the exception of Invit-
ed Papers) are limited to a size of no more than eight (8)
single-spaced pages in the printed version of the pro-
ceedings, including abstracts, figures, tables and refer-
ences. Manuscripts of ISPRS Invited Papers are limited to
16 pages. For any additional page the extra expenses
must be paid for by the author(s) according to the price-list
set by the meeting organisers. For the printed version of
the proceedings the font type Times New Roman with a
size of nine (9) points is to be used.
2. Title and Abstract Block
2.1 Title
The title should appear in bold capital letters without under-
lining, near the top of the first page of the paper. Use more
than one line if you wish, but always use single-spacing.
After one blank line, type the author(s) name(s), affiliation and
e-mail address in upper and lower case letters centered
under the title. In the case of multi-authorship, group them by
firm or organization. Affiliation should include position(s) of
the author(s), the institution(s), and the country(ies).
2.2 Key Words
Leave two blank lines under the Title. Type "KEY WORDS:"
in bold capital letters, followed by 6-8 English key words,
according to the list provided on the Archives page in the
ISPRS Home Page (www.isprs.org). Normally only key
words provided on this list will appear in the "Keywords
Index" found at the end of each Volume of the Archives.
2.3 Abstract
Leave two blank lines under the key words. Type
"ABSTRACT" flush left in bold Capitals followed by one
blank line. Start now with a concise Abstract (limited to 250
words) which presents briefly the content and, very impor-
tantly, the news and results of the paper in words under-
standable also to non-specialists. Type text single spaced,
without blank lines between paragraphs, as shown at the
beginning of these Guidelines under PURPOSE. Start para-
graphs flush with left margin. After the English abstract fol-
lows - whenever possible - a translation of it to one or two
of the other two official languages of ISPRS: to French
(RÉSUMÉ) and/or to German (KURZFASSUNG).
3. Main Body of Text
Type text single spaced, with one blank line between para-
graphs and following headings. Start paragraphs flush
with left margin.
3.1 Headings
Major Headings
Major headings or section headings are to be centered, in
bold capitals without underlining, after a triple line space
(two blank lines) and followed by a double line space (one
blank line).
Subheadings
Type subheadings flush with the left margin in bold upper
case and lower case letters. Subheadings are on a sepa-
rate line between two single blank lines.
Subsubheadings. They are to be typed in bold upper case
and lower case letters after one double line space (one
blank line) flush with the left margin of the page, with text
following on the same line. Subsubheadings may be fol-
lowed by period or colon, they may also be the first word
of the paragraph's sentence.
Decimal numbering of all sections is recommended. If bold
printing is not available to you, use underlining, instead,
but only for subheadings and subsubheadings, not for
Major Headings.
3.2 Footnotes
Avoid footnotes, but if you need them, mark footnotes in
the text with an asterisk (*); use a double asterisk (**) for a
second footnote on the same page. Place footnotes at the
bottom of the page, separated from the text above it by a
horizontal line.
