Commercial Workshops
Delegates are able to attend our commercial workshop series presented by industry manufacturers aimed at providing novice operators, project and asset managers and potential purchasers of equipment with an understanding of the basic principles and fundamental benefits associated with LIDAR. These workshops are hosted by exhibiting companies and held alongside the ELMF conference. Delegates that are registered for the conference are able to attend free of charge.
Advanced Short Intensive Programme
ELMF is supporting an Advanced Short Intensive Programme that is organised and hosted by the University of Salzburg Department of Geoinformatics – Z_GIS and is being held from 30 November – 5 December. The course is catering to graduate students, young researchers and junior staff with a focus on research, development and applications involving LIDAR technologies and applications. The first three days being held at the University and the remaining days onsite at ELMF.
Mobile Mapping Vehicles
Mobile Mapping Vehicles will be parked directly outside the front of the centre providing easy access for all visitors wishing to view the latest technological developments in mobile mapping.
Early Bird Booking Rate
