GREETINGS FROM THE ASPRS STUDENT ADVISORY
COMMITTEE (SAC)!
We are excited about the 2018 ASPRS Annual Conference co-located with the
International Lidar Mapping Forum, February 5-8 inDenver, Colorado and hope
to welcome you to the Mile-High City. This year, the SAC has organized technical
paper sessions, poster sessions, and networking events. We encourage all ASPRS
members to attend the conference for professional development and personal
fulfilment.
Technical Sessions
The SAC organizes technical sessions every year and this year
we highlight exemplary student papers and posters across two
sessions. Students and early-career professionals will present
papers on a variety of topics including UAS, object-based image
analysis, LULC change, and Lidar applications. These sessions
are great opportunities to support student research and learn
about new and exciting developments in earth observation. On
Tuesday, February 6th, the poster session will take place from
1:30 to 2:45 pm and the paper sessions will take place from
3:15 to 4:30 pm. For any changes in location or time consult
the final program.
Networking
The SAC will host a Student/Employer Meet & Greet oppor-
tunity where students can meet with potential employers for
career-oriented questions, suggestions and possible job leads.
This networking event is a place for you to market yourself.
Past events have included a wide variety of international and
local employers. This year’s event in Denver promises to be
no different.
GeoL eague
The SAC will organize a geospatial competition on Tuesday,
February 6th from 4:30 to 5:30 pm. GeoLeague will be a game
show-style competition between teams which combine profes-
sionals, students, and professors. The competition promises
to test your geospatial knowledge and the winners will walk
away with special prizes. This activity is open to all conference
attendees and we are encouraging all students to participate!
