  BEPCII is a symmetric $e^+e^-$-collider located in Beijing running at
center-of-mass energies between 2.0 and 4.6 GeV. This energy range allows the
BESIII-experiment to measure hadron form factors both from direct
$e^+e^-$-annihilation and from initial state radiation processes. In this
paper, results on $e^+e^-\rightarrow p\bar{p}$ based on data collected by
BESIII in 2011 and 2012 are presented. We also present preliminary results on
$e^+e^-\rightarrow \Lambda \bar{\Lambda}$ based on the same data samples at 4
center-of-mass energies. BESIII results obtained from $e^+e^-\rightarrow
\pi^+\pi^-$ using the initial state radiation technique at the center-of-mass
energy of 3.773 GeV are also summarized. Finally, expectations on the
measurement of baryon electromagnetic form factors from the BESIII high
luminosity energy scan in 2015 and from initial state radiation processes at
different center-of-mass energies are also reported.
