2 Commission VII. Yet, the efforts of the active working groups are quite visible within the program. Commission VII has also enjoyed good relations with other scientific societies. Our close ties with the Remote Sensing Group of the International Union of Forest Research Organizations is particularly worth mentioning. This Group, at a highly successful remote sensing symposium in Freiburg in 1973, passed a resolution expressing its intention to cooperate closely with the ISP and Commission VII. Such offers for cooperation are gladly accepted because they contribute to the exchange of information between disciplines and they help in minimizing duplication and uncoordinated efforts. I would now like to make a few comments about the method of selection of papers for this Symposium. We have deviated from the practice of having invited and presented papers: an open call for papers was issued and proposals received were screened by the program committee. So many proposals were received that good papers had to be rejected; the program committee faced difficult decisions simply to achieve balance. This method of selecting papers has many advantages: it involves a more competitive approach, and gives new developments and new scientists a better chance to be heard; perhaps it also avoids inbreeding and repetition. But it also involves a committee in the extremely unpleasant task of judging and ranking proposals, often on the basis of incomplete information. This again is a topic on which the opinions of this Symposium will be appreciated. As you know, this Symposium is hosted by the Canadian Institute of Surveying and receives strong support from the Government of Canada (Canadian Forestry Service and Canada Centre for Remote Sensing) and the Government of Alberta (Alberta Environment). The University of Alberta (Department of Extension) has assumed major responsibilities for the administrative arrangements at the Symposium. Commission VII greatly appreciated the valuable assistance from these agencies.
