The seventh GIScience conference took place in Columbus/Ohio from
September 19 to 21, 2012 attracting some 300 attendees. On September, 18, 2012 a full day workshop was jointly organized by
Thomas Blaschke, University of Salzburg and Maggi Kelly, UC Berkeley.
About 20 international
GEOBIA-experts discussed methodologies to bridging the remote sensing centred
Geographic Object Based Image Analysis (GEOBIA) approach and GIScience concepts
in order to delineate, manage and manipulate objects. GIScience provides theoretical foundations for
object handling, but these concepts are not implemented in remote sensing workflows.
The increasingly popular GEOBIA concept puts objects in the focus and GIScience
seems to be the future methodological and theoretical home base. Leading
experts from both fields discussed the theoretical and methodological foundation
and highlighted ways to unravel the potential of extending GEOBIA concepts
beyond images.* objectification: non-technical issues of segmentation steps and alternative solutions
* methodological issues of object handling
* transferability and interoperability of rule sets
* multi-scale theories and concepts
* ontologies and semantics of objects
* GeoIntelligence -- location aware objectification
