International Polarimetric SAR Workshop in Niigata 2010
Outline
The international polarimetric SAR workshop 2010 (POLSAR-WS’10) is scheduled for promotion of researches on radar remote sensing and their applications. It will be held in Niigata, Japan on September 28-29 just after AP-RASC’10 in Toyama(Sept. 22-26). You are cordially invited to participate in POLSAR-WS’10. Among various remote sensing techniques, the polarimetry & polarimetric interferometry have attracted the most appreciable attention owing to abundant information obtained by polarimetric SAR. The aim of this workshop is to introduce the cutting-edge technologies and to exchange new ideas and methodologies. It covers from the basic theory of polarimetry to its practical applications. In this respect, internationally celebrated scholars with long experience in this field are invited as guest speakers. No registration fee will be charged to participants in the workshop.
