In its Decadal Survey/Earth Science and Applications from Space:

National Imperatives for the Next Decade and Beyond, the US National Research Council recommended a satellite mission to produce global observations of multiple Earth surface attributes for a variety of terrestrial and aquatic studies.

The mission will assess the response of ecosystems to natural and human induced changes; identify natural hazards; and map the mineralogical composition of the land surface.

Currently known as HyspIRI, this mission is in the conceptual design phase at NASA.  It consists of an imaging spectrometer in the visible to shortwave infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum and a multispectral imager in the thermal infrared region of the electromagnetic spectrum.

NASA will convene a science community workshop on August 11-13, 2009, in Pasadena, CA.  The primary goal of this workshop will be to review the science goals and measurement requirements and also present precursor science results related to the HyspIRI mission concept.

Additional details on the agenda for the workshop as well as workshop registration and hotel information will be forthcoming on the HyspIRI

 September 9-12, 2009. The 6th International Symposium on Digital Earth (ISDE6).

Second Announcement (Adobe PDF 857Kb). Abstract submission deadline extended to April 30

Dear Colleagues,

You are cordially invited to attend the 6th International Symposium on Digital Earth ( ISDE6 ) with the theme of Digital Earth in Action and to visit Beijing, China in September, 2009. ISDE6 will continue the tradition of gathering world-class scientists, engineers and educators to review the progress of digital earth during the last decade and discuss the achievements of digital earth and its future development.

Digital earth is a virtual representation of our planet and a global initiative aimed at harnessing the world's data and information resources to develop a virtual 3-D model of the Earth in order to monitor, measure, and forecast natural and human activity on the planet. It has a broad domain related to earth observation, geographic information system, global positioning system, virtual reality, computer technology, network communication, geosciences and social sciences etc.

Since the promulgation of the Beijing Declaration on Digital Earth at the First International Symposium on Digital Earth (ISDE) in 1999, digital earth has prospered and made great progress in both theory and applications. The international symposia on digital earth have been held in Canada, Czech Republic, Japan, and the United States every two years since 2001, and Digital Earth Summits were convened in New Zealand and Germany in 2006 and 2008 respectively. The 6th ISDE "Digital Earth in Action" will mainly focus on the technological advances and the various emerging applications linking digital earth and many other relating technologies. http://www.isde6.org/

For many people in the industry, the high-profile congress and trade fair - featuring a host of innovations - have become the most important meeting point in the year.

The trade fair and congress cover all the key trends that occur along the value-added chain - from geo-based information gathering and data processing to systems-integrated applications. www.intergeo.de

September 29-October 2, 2009. URISA's 47th Annual Conference & Exposition. The Premier Conference for the GIS Professional Providing Solutions to Challenges, Anaheim, California

~ Register by June 15 to take advantage of super-early discounts (save $150) ~
GISCI points earned for attending one workshop and this conference = .6 Education Points

URISAURISA 2009 - The Premier Conference for GIS Professionals - will uphold the solid educational and networking traditions from years past, in addition to bringing new methods of engagement. Attendees can “contribute” to, versus just “participate” in, this year's experience. This is certainly not a time for business as usual!

Cy Smith, GISP, Associate Conference Chair and Chair of the Coalition of Geospatial Organizations (COGO), will be dynamically-facilitating discussion and continuity throughout the conference. Hilary Perkins, GISP, URISA International President, is promoting the use of social networking tools, such as Twitter and Facebook, to tweet and BLOG about individual and collective sessions in real-time. Danielle Ayan, GISP, Program Chair, is “repackaging” conference categories to have meaning for the masses. The new focus is on geospatial solutions for Healthy, Growing, Safe, Educated and Best Managed Communities. In addition, an innovative track of 7-minute “Quick Hits” will be videographed to capture and bring the intellectual capital of URISA International’s notable speakers to the world via post-conference Internet publication.

The 2009 Conference Committee, led by Mike Lovett, GISP, Conference Chair, has been especially creative, generating session titles and descriptions such as “Slimming Down with GIS” and “Driving a Hybrid Integration.” You are encouraged to take some time to review some of the sessions scheduled.

Distinguished keynote speakers include Dr. Barry Wellar, MCIP, GISP and URISA Past President (1978) and Michael Byrne, GISP, California's first Geographic Information Officer (GIO).

No doubt, this is a lean economy and travel is often limited or restricted. Yet, this annual conference, in particular, offers value to geospatial professionals unmatched by any remote or online activity. Where else can you have access to over 500 peers/colleagues, 70 geospatial solutions to challenges and the ability to engage with the sources of those solutions directly within 3-5 days?

URISA is offering registration options to meet your budget limitations - register for the full conference (which includes attendance at an eight hour preconference workshop) or for a single day. Register well in advance and save $150 on full registration rates. Take advantage of a wealth of transportation options to find the best deal on travel.  

Details about preconference workshops, the infrastructure management technology tour at Disneyland, specific sessions and speakers, registration options, travel information and much more is available online: URISA Annual Conference & Exposition

Geomatics technologies are able to support management and recovery in the aftermath of manmade and natural disasters. However, disaster management also poses big challenges in all aspects of the geo-information cycle, from data acquisition, processing, management and delivery. For the sixth time, the International Symposium on Geo-information for Disaster Management (Gi4DM) brings together researchers, developers, data providers and users from all over the world to discuss these challenges.

Papers that deal with any aspect of geomatics technologies suitable for crisis management are invited. Authors should focus on the methodologies, tools, functionality, and/or interfaces that are being or should be provided to National and/or International Organizations involved with crisis response and management.

Invitation is also open for contributions that cover crisis management in any phase, intersection of phases, and/or integration of phases of Planning, Training, Mitigation, Detection, Alerting, Response, Recovery, and Assessment.

The language of the conference is English.
