PRoVisG contributed to this year's Arctic Mars Analogue Svalbard Expedition (AMASE) 2009 in the Svalbard archipelago. Within an international team consisting of representatives from Agencies (ESA, NASA-JPL) and space Instrumens teams (e.g. ExoMars PanCam), on-site 3D Vision processing abilities were demonstrated, and a huge amount of representative test data was acquired.

PRoVisG Team member Arnold Bauer: "Our AMASE contribution was generally successful for PRoVisG and also the ExoMars PanCam Team. Great progress since 2008 was recognized. PanCam had a Team of 3 people, coming with quite different scope, well complementing one another. A large data set, extremely useful for PRoVisG, was collected, and large part of it was already on-site processed.

The target of the expedition from our understanding (to bring together space community and launch discussions and joint projects / undertakings during the expedition and in future) was fulfilled."
