Deformation monitoring of both man-made and natural structures is an important aspect of our activities. Structural failures such as collapses of dams, tunnels, bridges and buildings and geo-hazards caused by events such as landslides, ground subsidence and earthquakes are world-wide problems that often lead to significant economic and life losses. It is therefore important to carry out systematic research and development so we can better understand and manage these problems.
Rapid developments in advanced surveying and mapping techniques, processing algorithms and analytical tools, micro-electronics and computer sciences, wireless communications and machine control have significantly changed both sensors/instrumentation and methodology in Applied Geodesy, Engineering Surveying and other related fields, including those for monitoring natural phenomena and man-made structures. There is nowadays a high demand to develop new monitoring concepts and solutions to meet the real needs of society in minimising the negative environmental impacts.
The International Federation of Surveyors (FIG) represented by Working Group 6.1 “Deformation Measurement and Analysis”, the International Association of Geodesy (IAG) represented by Sub-Commission 4.1 “Alternatives and Backups to GNSS”, the Study Group 4.1 on “New Technologies for Disaster Monitoring and Management”, Sub-Commission 4.2 “Applications of Geodesy in Engineering”, Sub-Commission 4.4 “Applications of Satellite & Airborne Imaging Systems”, and Sub-Commission 4.5 “High Precision GNSS Algorithms and Applications”, and the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) represented by Commission V “Close-Range Sensing: Analysis and Applications” have been very active in developing and applying new concepts, methods and technologies for deformation measurements, analysis and interpretation.
The forthcoming symposium is the 4th time for the FIG and IAG groups to have a joint meeting on this important topic. In 2013, this joint FIG and IAG initiative is further expanded with the support from ISPRS, echoing the importance of deformation monitoring in safeguarding the sustainable development of the economy and society.
Scientists, engineers, educators, research students, representatives from public authorities, policy makers in surveying, geodesy, civil, structural, geotechnical and mining engineering, geology, geodynamics, geosciences, geo-hazard studies and hydrology are invited to attend this key international event to share the latest research results and experiences in deformation measurement, analysis and interpretation.

We live in a dynamic world that’s in a constant state of change. Buildings, bridges, tunnels and the infrastructure that surround us are under increasing strain through greater usage, climate change and proximity to construction. Safeguarding our infrastructure is critical to the safety and structural integrity of the world we live in. Early and precise deformation monitoring is an absolute necessity to protect against these risks and uncertainty.
With nearly 200 years of experience in precise measurement and over 20 years of expertise in automatic deformation monitoring systems, professionals rely on Leica Geosystems.

IDS Ingegneria dei Sistemi is an engineering researching company in the electromagnetic field for Civil and Defence markets.
The GeoRadar division has created innovative Radar Systems for applications in remote, non-destructive fields of investigation such as:
• civil and structural engineering
• geology, geophysics and the environment
• archaeology and cultural heritage
Since 1990, IDS as worldwide leader in the GPR market, has created a new technology based on antennas arrays called Hi-Bright for surveying the conditions of the deck of bridges.
Moreover, IDS is pioneering a revolutionary technology in the domain of geodetic measurements called IBIS F , the first Ground-Based interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar for the sub-millimetric measurement of structural movements (dam, bridges, buildings, towers).

About Nottingham
Nottingham is famed for its links with the legend of Robin Hood and, during the Industrial Revolution, obtained worldwide recognition for its lace-making, bicycle and tobacco industries. With origins traceable back to 600 AD, Nottingham was granted its city charter as part of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations of Queen Victoria in 1897 and has since been officially titled the City of Nottingham. Nottingham is home to the BBC East Midlands offices and formerly the Government Office for the East Midlands. It is one of eight members of the English Core Cities Group.
