Information and discussion related to high-resolution lidar topography for the Earth sciences
Now that the 2010 AGU meeting is over, it is time to start thinking about the 2011 European Geoscience Union General Assembly in Vienna, Austria, April 3-8, 2011. The EGU abstract submission deadline is January 10th, 2011.
Via Paolo Tarolli, an announcement about a session at this year's European Geoscience Union Meeting in Vienna. The session emphasizes analysis techniques for high-resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) of Earth, seafloor or planetary landscapes:
Dear colleagues,
Earlier this month a National Research Council report entitled Precise Geodetic Infrastructure: National Requirements for a Shared Resource was published via the National Academies Press.
A NOAA expedition that concluded this past Sunday focused on mapping the offshore extent of the San Andreas fault at high-resolution. Using sonar mapping and other imaging and geophysical technologies, the NOAA-funded group, led by Chris Goldfinger from Oregon State University, is building a 3D model of the fault that they hope will reveal information about earthquake behavior as well as the role of the fault in undersea life:
