Symposium: 100 Years ISPRS - Advancing Remote Sensing Science
5 July 2010 to 7 July 2010
Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria

The symposium will take place at the Vienna University of Technology at which premises the International Society for Photogrammetry (ISP) was founded by Eduard Dolezal on July 4, 1910. The Society changed its name to the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ISPRS) in 1980, reflecting the increasing integration of the two disciplines. In our modern digital age, photogrammetry and remote sensing have virtually grown together, having as their common scope the extraction of reliable information from noncontact imaging and other sensor systems about the Earth and its environment, and other physical objects and processes through recording, measuring, analyzing and representation.

34th International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment
10 April 2011 to 15 April 2011
Sydney, Australia

The first International Symposium on Remote Sensing of Environment was first convened in 1962 in Ann Arbor, Michigan. It was hosted by the Willow Run Laboratories of the University of Michigan. The Symposium brought together scientists from around the world to exchange technical information on an emerging technology called remote sensing, a technology which provided the capability of viewing the Earth from high-altitude aircraft and, ultimately, spacecraft. Since that meeting in 1962, twenty-four additional symposia were convened at various venues around the world by Willow Run Laboratories and its successor organization, the Environmental Research Institute of Michigan (ERIM).

In 1994, ERIM, in consultation with an international advisory committee, elected to foster the establishment of an independent non-profit corporation for the specific purpose of convening the symposia every two years. That organization was incorporated in the state of Maryland in March of 1995 as the International Center on Remote Sensing of the Environment (ICRSE).

The Symposia series continues to be guided by an international committee comprised of experts in the field of remote sensing who represent most of the world’s national space agencies.

XXV General Assembly of the International Union of Geodesy & Geophysics - Earth on the Edge: Science for Sustainable Planet? (IUGG 2011)
28 June 2011 to 7 July 2011
Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre, Melbourne, Australia

Dear Scientific Colleagues,

The Organising Committee for the 2011 International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG) General Assembly, on behalf of the Australian and New Zealand scientific communities, invites researchers world-wide to Melbourne, Australia in 2011, to participate in an exciting, multi-disciplinary conference on cutting edge science, presented by the eight scientific associations of the IUGG.

The conference will be marked by a scientific program of outstanding plenary speakers, a comprehensive program of state of the art symposia organised by each IUGG association, a compelling keynote speakers program, and the highlight of IUGG conferences, an inter-disciplinary, inter-association program of symposia addressing major scientific issues of global and regional significance and concern.

The new Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre, to be completed in late 2009, will be the most modern convention centre in the world. The city of Melbourne is one of the most live-able cities in the world that hosts a diverse and dynamic scientific research community.

Australia and New Zealand are fantastic destinations for holidays and tourism, offering exotic touring opportunities. The indigenous Aboriginal culture of Australia and the Maori culture of New Zealand are unique in the world.

We look forward to sharing with you the rich scientific program we are planning for the 2011 IUGG General Assembly in Melbourne as well as the unique and exotic recreational opportunities Australia and New Zealand offer to IUGG 2011 participants and their families.

Professor Ray Cas
Chairman,
Joint Australia and New Zealand Organising Committee,
IUGG 2011 Melbourne
