What does the course cover?
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.
moreThis 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.
