Earth Observation through satellite, airborne and ground-based imaging is increasingly being exploited in academic and commercial sectors in Ireland due to a growing awareness of the potential offered by these technologies in seeking solutions to contemporary problems. This Symposium provides an opportunity for those working in the Irish Earth Observation sector to meet and present their work in either oral or poster format. After the main sessions it is hoped that Compass Informatics (ERDAS suppliers in Ireland) will organise a workshop to demonstrate the latest ERDAS software products used for image analysis (LiDAR data processing, feature extraction and enterprise data sharing are just some of the topics that will be covered). There will also be a keynote address from a leading researcher in Earth Observation from the UK (sponsored by OSI).
