The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission started the planning of a collaborative workshop on remote sensing for conservation application. A special geographical focus might be on Africa due to the existing project structure and existing information systems. The location of the workshop will be in Ispra, North Italy and being held in the fourth quarter of 2013.
The Joint Research Centre of the European Commission in Ispra is planning a workshop on Remote Sensing for Conservation with a strong focus on real-world implementation. 20 to 30 participants from different disciplines will within this by-invitation-only workshop discuss and develop options, ways and future perspectives to close the gap between remote sensing and conservation. A geographical focus might be put on Africa and its conservation challenges. The workshop is planned for the fourth quarter of 2013. More information and the results will soon be posted on the webpage.
