Vision Visio - Laser scanning is omnipresent and affecting positively the life of every citizen in modern information society by early 2020s - In the next two decades, new MLS and PLS/WLS systems are making LS more ubiquitous in the same sense as the first personal computing was followed by ubiquitous computing. Objective - to create new knowledge, create and demonstrate new concepts and openings, foster research and breakthroughs, and solve challenging research problems related to laser scanning, towards the CoE-LaSR vision.

Käsittääkseni molemmat olemme aktiivisia lasertutkien parissa, joten yhteistyöstä voisi olla merkittävää kilpailuetua tutkimuksessa, ennen kaikkea tulevan laitetekniikan demonstroimisessa uusissa sovelluksissa. Osastollani on 2 tutkimusryhmää, joiden lyhyt esittely löytyy netistä www.fgi.fi/mobimap www.fgi.fi/activesensing Vielä parempi olisi, jos saisimme yhteistyöhankkeita, joissa Penttikin olisi mukana. En esim. tiedä, miten SA olisi asiaan reagoinut, jos olisimme olleet samassa huippuyksikköhakemuksessa. terv. Juha I had followed Kostamovaara s work since 1997

Contribution done with 0-1% budget funding (50% of citations of FGI) Innovation award to Hyyppä & Maltamo teams 2010. 40
Objective society impacts Previously obtained 30M /year With co-operation of operative bodies increased turnover of co-operation companies, savings in the society, and improved processes, thanks to technology developed by CoE-LaSR. With Finnish Export Industry. We also believe that in our field there are possibilities for great leading-edge breakthroughs in the commercial sector. The LS global markets are growing 15.4% annually. National security National geospatial institute will be set up 2015, Government Dec. 5 Sept 2013
Impact to FGI Tuloksellisuustarkastuskertomus 231/2011: tuottavuusohjelman toteuttaminen ja vaikutukset: Toinen vahvan tuottavuuskehityksen virasto oli Geodeettinen laitos, jonka työn tuottavuus nousi vuotta 2007 lukuun ottamatta 30 82 prosenttia edellisestä vuodesta. Tuotoksen määrän muutoksessa oli kuitenkin suurta vaihtelua vuosittain. Tämä johtui saadun selvityksen mukaan siitä, että tutkimusprojektien julkaisut ilmestyvät yleensä niiden loppupuolella tai jopa jo niiden päätyttyä. Prosessi on jossain määrin satunnainen, joten julkaisut saattavat kasautua jollekin vuodelle.
