Garada Synthetic Aperture Radar Workshop
The Garada Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Workshop will be held at the University of New South Wales (UNSW) on Wednesday 7 December 2011. The Garada project aims to design low cost and light-weight SAR spacecraft that can image the earth at day and night and in any weather. These will meet requirements for flood […]
Two new space research centres launched
A new space centre at Melbourne’s RMIT University will focus on developing low-cost satellite-based remote sensing products. The centre is part of the federal government’s $40m Super Science Initiative, aimed at boosting the Australian economy. The government hopes the centre will help put Australia in a leading position in the study of atmospheric mass […]
Monitoring Natural Disasters with Formation Flying
Scientists at the University of New South Wales will develop satellite surveying technologies that can monitor flooding, bushfires, deforestation and earthquakes in real-time thanks to a $4.7m government grant. The project involves using multiple satellites, flying in a formation, to provide highly accurate, three-dimensional imaging of the Earth’s surface. It is based on using data […]
CRCSI Workshops on Sustainable Development
The Co-operative Research Centre for Spatial Information (CRCSI) is hosting a series of urban development workshops from 17 to 24 June to help shape the organisation’s research activities. The events, which are open to the public, will focus on spatial tools for urban regeneration in regards to greyfield development. Greyfields – ageing, declining middle […]
