1. Introduction
The purpose of providing these notes is to standardise the format of papers submitted to the Oslo Research Workshop 2006. These notes are reworked, from among others, guidelines by Barnsley and Pan for the Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society's annual conference in 1999.

It is the responsibility of the presenting author to ensure accuracy of content, spelling and presentation

The paper must be submitted as a Word document, or the compatible Rich Text Format (but NOT pdf), with main text in 12-point Arial. Short papers cannot be longer than 5 pages, regular papers cannot be longer than 15 pages. They shall be written in the English language.

For the title of the paper and the section headings, 18pt and 14pt bold centered, respectively, should be used. Name(s) of the author(s) in normal italics, 12pt, centered. Omit degree(s) and title(s). For multiple authors with multiple affiliations, use superscript numbers to correlate authors with affiliation and address. Affiliation, address and e-mail in Normal Arial 12.

Each section of the paper should be numbered, as shown in this example. The section headings should be left-justified and given in bold type. The base font in the  main text  should be Arial 12pt.

The first line of each paragraph in each section should NOT be indented, as in this example. Do NOT number the pages.

1.1 Sub-sections
Sub-sections should also be numbered as shown in this example. The sub-section heading should be left-justified and given in bold type (12pt).

1.1.1 Sub-sub-sections
Sub-sub-section should be numbered as shown above. The sub-sub-section heading should be left-justified and given in bold type (12pt). The use of sub-sub-sub-sections is discouraged.

2. Equations, Figures and Tables
Equations should be centred on the page and numbered consecutively in the right-hand margin, for example 

They should be referred to in the text as, for example, Equation 1.

Figures, tables and drawings must be computer generated. They should be placed in the text as close as possible to their citations.
Centre each table on the text width. Number tables, figures and drawings, e.g. Table 1, Table 2 and so on.

3. References and Citations
Use the Harvard system. References should be cited in the text by name and date, e.g. (Bending and Convincing, 1990) or Bending and Convincing (1990). If there are more than two authors, the first author name with “et al.” should be used, e.g. (Papageno et al., 1999). All references listed must be cited, and all cited references must be included in the reference list. The list should be in alphabetical order of author; where there is more than one reference by the same author they should be listed chronologically. Give full titles of articles and journals.

Citations of these within the text should be given as follows - there are several good papers in this area (Authority, 1973; Learned and Expert, 1982), although the work by Fudgit and Publish-Anyway (1997) is an exception.

4. Acknowledgements
Acknowledgement should be made of any funding bodies who have supported the work reported in the paper, of those who have given permission for their work to be reproduced or of individuals whose particular assistance is due recognition.
