Remote Sensing and Photogrammetry Society (RSPSoc) 2010 Annual Conference with Irish Earth Observation Symposium, Visualising the World: From the Sea-bed to the Cloud-tops

In recent years the volume and diversity of imagery acquired by satellite, airborne, ground and ship-based sensors has grown enormously, and the number of application domains in which the images are used has similarly multiplied. At the same time, digital mapping tools and the media use of images, after natural disasters for example, have brought remotely sensed imagery into the public domain as never before. But how can the users best communicate the results derived from imagery, or from integrating images with other spatial data? How can they use these data to depict the world of today, as well as predict how it might change in the future? How can the world invisible to someone's eyes be made visible?

Some ot the topics to be discussed at the conference are the following:

• Marine and coastal management
• Ocean governance and security
• Underground and underwater
• Climate adaptation and mitigation
• Polar and high altitude regions
• Forests, food and vegetation
• Atmosphere and weather
• Vertical profiling
• Close range sensors
• New sensors and processing technologies

The expected number of participants in the event is around 250-300. The registration can be performed with the payment of a fee. Registration and the accompanying payment at the early bird rate are due by June 30th 2010, and the deadline for registration is August 27th 2010, after which a surcharge will be applied.
