The 2017 edition will focus on the steps and processes for smart 3D reconstruction, modelling, accessing and understanding of virtual environments from multiple data sources. Topics include:

• Multi-source data and multi-sensors approaches
  
• Low-cost sensors and open-source algorithms for terrestrial 3D modeling
  
• Automation in data registration
  
• Image matching and 3D reconstruction
  
• Point cloud analysis
  
• 4D modelling
  
• Procedural modeling and BIM
  
• Accuracy requirement and assessment in 3D reconstructions
  
• Virtual and Augmented Reality applied to the visualization and conservation of complex architectures and heritage

The event will have single-track technical sessions with oral presentations, poster sessions and demos.

Panel Session:  "3D Mass Digitization – Future Trends, Challenges and Opportunities":

In the context of large-scale 3D digitization, there is a significant need for 1) improved acquisition processes, 2) 3D-centered and web-based annotation systems for object classification and metadata enrichment, 3) technical solutions for long-term storage and standardized data formats and 4) 3D visualization and 3D printing technologies. During this interactive session, we want to start a discussion among practitioners and researchers on the challenges in the areas mentioned above, aiming to better implement and make use of 3D mass digitization in long term.
