A sold-out exhibition of 40 companies associated with the security and defence industry will be held 21 and 22 September. Access to the exhibition and all conferences is included with registration to either the Security and Defence or the Remote Sensing congress.
Remote Sensing will include a special session on LIDAR measurements including those used last spring to monitor the composition and movement of the ash cloud resulting from the eruption of the volcano Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland.
Another session will focus on the European SMOS satellite. Its innovative sensor system currently is being used to track the saturated soils of flood-stricken Pakistan.
