The CEOI second one-day training workshop on "Designing and Delivering an EO Instrument Concept".
Time: 10.00am - 5.00pm Date: Monday 15th March 2010 Location: London, (to be confirmed)
Speakers include:
Kim Ward from STFC's Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) will give a presentation on implementing an EO instrument.
The workshop will build on the highly successful first CEOI training workshop and will be particularly timely given the current call for Earth Explorer 8 missions. It will include talks on the challenges of designing world class instruments and the trade-offs, presentations from experts on some key instrument techniques and working sessions where participants can become familiar with issues in designing instruments and ensuring that they can achieve best scientific and payload value. The workshop will also provide an opportunity for displaying posters on emerging or new instrument concepts.
The workshop is aimed at both academia and industry including research scientists, technologists and potential instrument PIs, both those anticipating taking on such leadership roles now and also those PDRAs/PhDs and graduates already in industry who may aspire to do so as their careers develop. The workshop should provide valuable insight into the design process and an excellent opportunity to network. There is no charge for attendance at the Workshop, although attendees will have to pay their own travel costs.
Further information can be obtained from Dr John Remedios (CEOI Training) or Mick Johnson.
A detailed agenda will be published on the CEOI website (link opens in a new window) and sent to those who register.
If you wish to attend, please register with Chris Goddard; telephone 0116 2523403, also indicating whether you would like to display a poster on an instrument concept.
