For the ISPRS 18 Congress in Vienna, Commission VI has received about technical papers
and twenty Member (National) Reports, which have partly reflected the development of the
economics, professional matters and education in our area of photogrammetry, remote
sensing and GIS in different countries. The presentations and discussions around these topics
at the congress will surely promote further advancement in our subject areas.
Faced with rapid changes, great chances and unprecedented challenges, our discipline needs
reorganization, reorientation and even renaming, which calls for more and deeper thinking
and reviews of the functions of Commission VI and ISPRS at large at the Vienna Congress.
We sincerely hope that, in the next four years, Commission VI will receive more attention
and support from colleagues worldwide, and that it will make more and better progress.
