Second International Workshop on the Analysis of Multitemporal Remote Sensing Images

16-18 July 2003 - European Commission Joint Research Centre, Ispra (VA), Italy

The development of effective methodologies for the analysis of multitemporal data is one of the most important and challenging issues that the remote-sensing community should face in the next years. The importance and the timeliness of this issue are directly related to the ever increasing quantity of multi-temporal data provided by the numerous remote-sensing satellites that orbit around our planet.

The response to the First International Workshop on the Analysis of Multi-temporal Remote Sensing Images (MultiTemp-2001), held at the University of Trento, Trento, Italy, in September 2001, demonstrated that the workshop is timely, and that there is a clear need to advance theory and applications of multi-temporal remote sensing image analysis.

For this reason, the Second International Workshop on the Analysis of Multi-Temporal Remote Sensing Images (MultiTemp-2003) will be organized with the same style: a high quality workshop, focusing on the methodological aspects of multi-temporal remote-sensing image analysis and on their applications.

The workshop's main goal is to assess the state of the art of both theory and applications in the analysis of multi-temporal remote-sensing images and geospatial data. This workshop should greatly contribute to define common research priorities according to end-users' needs, and its proceedings should become a unique, first-class reference for multi-temporal geospatial data analysis.

The workshop is supported by:
