Background and aim of this seminar:

As a PhD student remote sensing, I found out that there is not much contact between PhD students remote sensing at the various Dutch universities and institutes. Especially between groups working in different “fields” (optical water or land, and acoustic remote sensing) there is not much information exchange. The aim of this seminar is to change this! If you are a PhD students working on remote sensing or using remote sensing data, you are invited to present your research, in an oral presentation or with a poster.

We will:

- Broaden our view on what research is done on remote sensing

- Present our own research, just started to nearly finished, plan or results

- Discuss the problems we encounter, and the nice ideas we have

- Meet other PhD students working on remote sensing, tighten the contacts with other research groups and exchange addresses
