Second Call for Papers: GRSG Silver Anniversary Conference 2014 ’25 Years of Geological Remote Sensing’ 15th – 17th Dec, London.

GRSG SILVER ANNIVERSARY CONFERENCE 2014
’25 Years of Geological Remote Sensing’
15th – 17th December 2014 at the Geological Society of London

SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS

The Geological Remote Sensing Group (GRSG) announces the second call for papers for the 25th Anniversary meeting. To celebrate our 25th anniversary we have invited the founding chairman, Geoff Lawrence, to give a keynote presentation which will track how Geological remote sensing has progressed and will be entitled ‘25 years of Geological Remote Sensing: Then and Now’. There will also be keynotes throughout the conference explaining the history and significance of remote sensing applied to the following areas:

Oil and Gas: Martin Insley (Tullow Oil)
RS and disaster management: Richard Teeuw (Portsmouth University)
Mineral Exploration: Dan Taranik (Exploration Mapping)
Engineering applications: Jason Manning (Arup)
InSAR and Geohazards: TBC

As usual, abstracts are welcome on a wide range of remote sensing themes, including:

Retrospective viewpoints on how remote sensing has changed in 25 years (e.g. Landsat, ASTER, Hyperspectral etc.)
New sensors: technological developments, analytical methods & algorithms
Latest developments in:

• Mineral exploration
• Oil & Gas
• Geological applications (geologicalmapping, lithological classification, tectonics, seismology)
• Geomorphology
• Geohazards (e.g. landslides, flooding)
• Terrain, Bathymetry and Elevation models
• Classification, multi-temporal analysis and modelling

Planetary science & comparative geomorphology
Hyperspectral & Multispectral; Radar / InSAR; Optical & high resolution
Abstracts (Oral Presentations and Posters): Title, Author(s) and 300 word abstract should be sent to agm@grsg.org.uk by the 15th September 2014.

For further information, sponsorship opportunities and logistics, please email chairman@grsg.org.uk
