Day 7 at - our penultimate day in Toronto!

The day started with another packed programme of scientific sessions, covering topics from agricultural monitoring, disaster management, wetlands and wildfire science to point clouds, 3D reconstruction, remote sensing, and spatial intelligence.

We also gathered for Plenary Session 5, while the afternoon brought more technical discussions and the final Poster Session of ISPRS 2026 - the last opportunity to explore research presented in poster format and meet the authors.

And today, we are already on the final day of the Congress! Presentations are still underway, and at 12:00 we invite you to join us for the Closing Ceremony as we officially conclude an incredible week in Toronto.

See you there!

Another inspiring day of scientific sessions, Plenary Session 4, technical meetings, and Poster Session 4, where researchers shared their latest work and exchanged ideas.

Today also marked the final day of our exhibition booth. A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by, took part in our activities and connected with us throughout the week. It was a pleasure meeting so many members of the global geospatial community!

We wrapped up the day at the ISPRS STEP–TIF Evening Reception, celebrating students, early professionals, and the new connections made during an unforgettable week.

Day 5 at is complete!

Another day full of inspiring discussions and knowledge sharing! We enjoyed Plenary Session 3, a wide range of scientific and industry sessions, engaging forums, and Poster Session 3, where researchers presented their latest work.

Our ISPRS & ISPRS STEP Booths ( #215 & #217) continued to welcome visitors from around the world. It was fantastic to meet so many of you—and yes, our ISPRS jigsaw puzzles are still a huge hit! 🧩

The day ended with the Congress Dinner, bringing the community together for an unforgettable evening of networking and celebration.
