IEEE GRSS Data Fusion Contest - Multi-angular imagery from DigitalGlobe

Register for the DigitalGlobe IEEE GRSS Data Fusion Contest

DigitalGlobe is supporting this year's IEEE GRSS Data Fusion Contest which aims to explore multi-angular acquisitions over the same target area. 

DigitalGlobe is providing a very exciting dataset - a set of 5 WorldView-2 images collected over Rio de Janeiro (Brazil) in January 2010 within a three minute time frame. The multi-angular sequence contains the downtown area of Rio, including a number of large buildings, commercial and industrial structures, the airport and a mixture of community parks and private housing.   

Please go to the following site, complete the registration form and read the license agreement to gain access to the images. 


Final papers should be submitted as a pdf document by May 31, 2011. For complete details, please see the registration site.

Questions, technical or otherwise, should be submitted to the IEEE GRSS Discussion Forum.
