![]() International Academy of Astronautics 11th IAA Symposium on Small Satellites for Earth Observation April 24-28, 2017 Berlin, Germany Final program is now available. In memory of Dr. Hans-Peter Roeser. For more detailed information, please visit the Conference website at https://www.dlr.de/iaa.symp Organized by International Academy ofAstronautics
Supported and hosted by ![]() Institute of Optical Sensor Systems OBJECTIVES The great number of scientists, engineers, and managers who participated in the hitherto existing symposia reflects the high interest in the use of small satellites for dedicated missions applied to earth observation, from scientific earth observation missions to technology demonstration missions. These types of missions can be conducted relatively quickly and inexpensively and provide increased opportunity for access to space The spacecraft bus and instruments can be based either on optimized off-the-shelf systems, with little or no requirements for new technology, or on new high-technology systems. Thus a new class of advanced small satellites, including autonomously operating "intelligent" satellites may be created, opening new fields of application for scientific purposes as well as operational, public and commercial services. The symposium will provide a forum for scientists, engineers and managers to exchange information about planned and on-going programs and missions, and present new ideas, covering small satellite mission objectives as well as technology and management aspects for dedicated earth observation satellites. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to: Small Satellite Mission Programs International and national programs Planned and on-going programs Integrated applications Objectives for Small Satellite Missions Scientific earth observation missions Systems for disaster and climate monitoring Technology demonstration missions Commercial services and applications Results and Lessons learned Mature (off the Shelf) Systems Sensors and instrumentation Spacecraft concepts and sub-systems Ground stations and communication Mission operation and facilities Launch systems University programs and systems Distributed Space Systems Constellation and Formation Rendezvous and Docking Space Debris issues Student Prize Paper Competition*) The symposium will consist of Lectures by invited speakers Contributed papers selected from abstracts received in response to the call for papers Poster sessions Panel discussions and will include a technical exhibition to showcase hardware and posters The official language will be English. *) Please note: Students, who want to submit their abstract for the Students Conference need to prepare an extended abstract (4 pages) ![]() SCHEDULE May 30, 2016 Call for Papers November 07, 2016 Abstracts Due November 30, 2016 Notification to authors December 15, 2016 Final Announcement January 31, 2017 Extended abstract due (4 pages) April 24, 2017 Final paper due (max. 8 pages) April 24 - 28, 2015 11th Symposium July 2017 Proceedings PROGRAM COMMITTEE L.

You are invited to contribute a paper for presentation at the symposium. A one-page, single-spaced abstract of no less than 300 and no more than 500 words*) must be received by 07 November, 2016. Abstracts should be in English and should include the symposium topic addressed, the problem explored, the methodology used, results and conclusions so as to allow the Scientific Program Committee to make an informed decision regarding their suitability for inclusion into the symposium. Notification of your paper's acceptance and author's instructions will be sent by 30 November 2016. One copy of the symposium digest comprising the extended abstracts (four pages) will be part of the registration package handed over when registering on-site. Final papers for the symposium proceedings are limited to eight pages, including tables and illustrations. The symposium proceedings will provide the contributed papers and interactive poster session papers presented during the symposium. They will be distributed on CD/DVD to the participants after the conference. Outstanding presentations of papers and posters will be awarded. Send your abstract by e-mail to: iaa.symp (at) dlr.de |
