Satellite Remote Sensing and Its Applications

 

Satellite-based Remote Sensing plays a vital role in a wide spectrum of applications. In this workshop, we target areas related to advancing high-resolution and mid-resolution remote sensing data acquisition and sensor modeling combined with new data processing techniques for information extraction, including machine learning and deep learning. We are also interested in advances in Remote Sensing that help find solutions to modern human problems, including combating climate change and addressing sustainable development. We encourage participation from academia, space agencies, government stakeholders and industrial research and development leaders to share their latest technology and research developments related, but not limited, to the following themes.
