Microsatellite Water Mission Workshop

Wednesday, January 24, 2018 8:30 am - 12:45 pm EST (GMT -05:00)

The Transformative Technologies and Smart-Watersheds Research (TTSW) group, led by Professor Claude Duguay, are initiating work with industrial partners on the design of a microsatellite water management mission concept. Global Water Futures team members and the broader end-user community have an opportunity to help define the science objectives and observational requirements of the satellite mission.

We will be holding our first Water Mission workshop on the morning of Wednesday, 24 January 2018, and are looking for participation from the GWF and larger water research community. All are welcome to attend! 

Please RSVP to TTSW project manager, Marie Hoekstra, by January 18, 2018.
