TIF Receives Outstanding Donation from Prof. Li Deren
The ISPRS Foundation (TIF) is pleased to announce that our good friend and colleague, Prof. Li Deren made a significant donation to the ISPRS Foundation. Such a donation is unique since it does not come from an institution but it is a personal gesture of Prof. Li Deren to assist young students in pursuing their careers in the areas of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing.
ISPRS and TIF are very grateful for this outstanding generous contribution.
