Personal profile

Personal profile

Sander Oude Elberink graduated as Geodetic Engineer from Delft University of Technology in 2000, and finished his PhD on the Acquisition of 3D Topography in March 2010. In September 2005 Oude Elberink started his PhD research on "Acquisition of 3D topography" at the International Institute for Geo-Information Science and Earth observation (ITC) Enschede. His research was part of the project '3D Topography' which received the RGI Innovation Award in the category science in 2007. He received a young author's award for best papers at the ISPRS congress in Beijing, China in 2008. In 2009 Sander received the ITC research award for a journal paper on 3D road reconstruction, which was co-authored by George Vosselman and published in the Photogrammetric Record. From September 2009 Sander holds a position of assistant professor at the department of Earth Observation Science at ITC. In 2016 Sander received the ISPRS Giuseppi Inghilleri award for his high quality and innovative research in 3D landscape modelling that has successfully been transferred to practice to serve the society.
