The Society for Imaging Science and Technology (IS&T) is a research and education organization in the field of imaging. Founded in 1947, as the Society of Photographic Science and Engineering (SPSE), it is headquartered in Washington DC. In 2006 it had about 1,500 members worldwide, and 5,000 participants in its various technical and industry-related programs.
IS&T is perhaps best known for its technical conferences and courses on various aspects of imaging science; digital imaging, digital printing, color imaging, photofinishing, archiving, and digital fabrication. The society publishes The Journal of Imaging Science and Technology, and The Journal of Electronic Imaging , (in collaboration with The International Society for Optical Engineering - SPIE).
