The Central European University (CEU) in Budapest, Hungary is organizing a workshop in July 2016 in cooperation with the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA). The workshop focuses on Geospatial Technologies and Remote Sensing for Monitoring Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This workshop provides a timely opportunity to get updated on the latest advances in geospatial technologies and remote sensing, and their application to the monitoring of SDGs. These technologies can be applied to many of the 17 SDGs.
For further information on the workshop and application procedures, please visit: http://isepei.org/geospatial-2016 or contact info [at] isepei.org. Limited financial support is available for applicants from developing countries.
The workshop has two tracks:
Track 1: Geospatial Technologies (July 4-8)
Track 2: Remote Sensing (July 4-9)
Applicants must select one track, which will determine the practical sessions they will attend and the final project focus area.
