The UKFRS IDHA conference is a unique annual event intended to provide a platform to highlight and showcase the diverse range of development and humanitarian aid activities coordinated and delivered by a variety of UK fire and rescue services, charities, NGO's and individual efforts throughout the world.

The conference is designed to develop and enhance the understanding of the current international development agenda and policies as well as provide a networking opportunity to enable delegates to share their own development and understanding of such a key specialist area.

This meeting will celebrate 25 years of geological remote sensing focusing on the pinnacle moments during this period as well as looking at the wide range of remote sensing tools, latest developments, sensors and applications that are now available.

GEO Business is the largest geospatial event in the UK designed for everyone involved in the gathering, storing, processing and delivery of geospatial information. Launched in 2014, the annual geospatial show has grown year on year and is now firmly established as the must-attend event in the industry attracting over 2500 people from more than 50 countries.

The conference will be focused on Earth Observation science, technology and applications Into the Future. The programme will include exhibitions and poster sessions, a school conference (7th September), plus plenary and parallel sessions.

The NCEO, CEOI and RSPSoc are hosting the UK National Earth Observation Conference from 4-7 September at Birmingham University, with the topic “Earth Observation into the future”. The aim is to deliver a conference which attracts a significant gathering of the UK EO community across research, government and industry. We have involved the Earth Observation community in planning the content of the conference, and designed sessions to encompass all aspects of Earth Observation – science, technology, and applications.

ENGAGE 2015 is a senior-level, invitation-only gathering bringing together key geospatial players and over 200 professionals from oil & gas, mining, environment, agriculture, global development organisations, defence & intelligence and location based services, for two days of discussion, engagement and learning.

Gain insight into the challenges and opportunities faced by senior-level executives from some of the world’s most eminent organisations across energy, mining, environment, agriculture, global development organisations, defence & intelligence and location based services.

Discuss your requirements with experts from the industry and influence future capabilities that can impact your organization’s performance.

 

The European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories (EARSeL) organizes the annual Symposium, which aims to showcase current trends in remote sensing. Researchers, students, and professionals from Earth and environmental sciences who work with remotely sensed data are invited to Manchester Metropolitan University to attend the 43rd EARSeL Symposium in June 2024. The Symposium will consist of oral and poster sessions covering various workshop topics.

Workshops will be held on the topics of Agriculture, Coastal Zones, Land Use & Land Cover, and Earth Observation in the Global South. Themes covered in Special Sessions include Drylands, Earth Observation Education and Training, Geological Applications, Self-Supervised Techniques, Semantic and Explainable Analysis of Big Earth Observation Data, Thermal Remote Sensing, Unoccupied Aerial Systems, and Urban Systems & Resilient Cities.

The CEOI-ST has a vision to develop and strengthen UK expertise and capabilities in Earth observation (EO) instruments and works to position the UK to win leading roles in future international space programmes. The programme supports mainstream projects and smaller projects, both selected through Open Calls to the EO community.

However, although the technical drive has been to produce instruments for space, in many cases the resulting technologies have non-space applications. A number of sectors which could be potential beneficiaries of such technologies include healthcare, defence and security, analytical instrumentation, marine industries and environmental.

Objectives: The event is open to all interested parties and aims to:

• Highlight collaborative opportunities emanating from remote sensing technologies in space
• Outline the particular needs in Earth Observation for spin-in technologies
• Showcase a number of CEOI projects

International Disaster Response Expo (IDR) tackles some of the most challenging threats to our nations whether man made or natural disasters. It is the most important event dedicated to humanitarian aid and disaster relief. With a highly focused audience uniting in London to drive innovation and help support development programmes and emergency aid, it is an unique opportunity to network, collaborate and build lasting relationship.

The IDR will host the Crisis Response Journal(CRJ)Theatre, which will look at the two most vital elements of society – people and where they live, examining the risks and threats that are inherent in urban areas, whether when working, living or during leisure activities. Add to this how we are increasingly becoming connected, both as individuals and through our infrastructure. How do we ensure the safety, security,...
