Proximal and Remote Sensing Technologies

The notifications to presenting authors confirming their specific date and time of presentation will be communicated the 20 August 2016.

Second Draft Preliminary programme is being updated per theme as the SPC signs them off.

The detailed draft day by day programme for each theme is being announced as it is being collated. These are still preliminary and will be finalised by the 20 August.

As this is the Second draft, please note that where there are abstract presenters not yet registered, these have now been removed from the programme.
Once removed, you will not be included in the abstracts or the programme. If your co-author is presenting, please contact the secretariat urgently to confirm and advise so that your paper can be moved to the correct presenter. Email 35igc@allevents.co.za if you have any queries or if you have in the interim managed to secure finances and registered.

Proximal and Remote Sensing Technologies

A host of new technologies facilitate the visualisation of the surface and subsurface of the Earth. These technologies contribute significantly to the understanding of the Earth System. Symposia and papers on the application and interpretation of remotely sensed visual data in the geosciences are invited for this theme.
