CIRFA well represented at the IGARSS2019 conference in Yokohama, Japan

CIRFA researchers excited to be presenting at the IGARSS2019 conference.

This week CIRFA is at the IEEE International Geoscience And Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS) conference in Yokohama, Japan. IGARSS is one of the remote sensing field’s largest events with several thousand people attending, representing research, industry and education.

CIRFA is well represented at the event with five oral presentations and two poster presentations. IGARSS is a peer-reviewed conference with many researchers competing for a slot in the program, so we are proud to have so many CIRFA researchers and associates at the conference.
