RSPSOC 2010 - Ireland
Visualising the World: From the Sea-bed to the Cloud-tops
The organising committee would like to welcome you to Cork, and hope you will have an enjoyable and productive time here, sharing the results of current research activities and developing new collaborations.
The theme of the conference is 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 such as Google Earth, 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 we best communicate the results derived from imagery, or from integrating images with other spatial data? How can we 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 our eyes be made visible?
This theme will be explored in a variety of areas, including:
- 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
