2024 IEEE Mediterranean and Middle-East Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium

We are pleased to come to give you some news and updates about the upcoming IEEE GRSS M2GARSS 2024 symposium (please see: 2024.m2garss.org/news.php):

1- The Paper Submission System will be online on September 17, 2023 (please see: 2024.m2garss.org/papers.php). Authors who wish to give a presentation are requested to prepare a paper/abstract (minimum of two 2-column pages; maximum of five 2-column pages). Be ready! The Paper Submission Deadline is November 17, 2023 (please see: 2024.m2garss.org/important_dates.php).

2- Four exciting Tutorials are defined (please see: 2024.m2garss.org/tutorials.php):

• Quantum computing for Earth observation (Gabriele Cavallaro and Amer Delilbasic)

• Machine learning for mineral resources mapping by using hyperspectral remote sensing data (Richard Gloaguen)

• Analysis of hyperspectral data: unsupervised unmixing and spin-offs (Yannick Deville)

• Some reminder of the physics of measurement in optical remote sensing. Application to pollution characterization (Xavier Briottet)

3- The 3MT competition is now open (until November 17, 2023). Please see: 2024.m2garss.org/3mt.php.

Please feel free to peruse the M2GARSS 2024 website, at: 2024.m2garss.org/, view the attached CfP and do not hesitate to broadcast this information around you.

The website will be updated regularly with useful information: stay tuned!

As a reminder, M2GARSS 2024, which is hosted by IEEE GRSS in collaboration with the Algerian Space Agency (ASAL), will be held from 15th to 17th of April 2024 in hybrid format: physically at the Centre de Développement des Satellites of ASAL (Oran, Algeria) and virtually via an online platform. It will contribute to gather scientists, engineers and educators, engaged in the fields of geoscience, remote sensing and related topics, from not only the Mediterranean and Middle-East regions, but from all around the world. It will have the same standard as IGARSS, the IEEE GRSS flagship Symposium, in terms of scientific quality and organization, and with lower registration fees.
