2018.03 | Virtual Geoscience Conference (August 2018)
Hi,
just a gently reminder that the abstract submission deadline for the 3rd Virtual Geoscience Conference is approaching very fast… have you submitted your abstract yet?
The 3rd Virtual Geoscience Conference (VGC) provides a meeting place for researchers and industry members at the forefront of technological developments and latest applications of geomatics and visualization tools in the geosciences. This year, the bi-anuual conference will be held in Kingston (Canada) and is being organized by an incredible team at Queens University, BGC and the Geological Survey of Canada. Interested?
We are looking forward to reading your latest virtual-geoscience-themed abstracts. Submissions must be made using the online submission page.
We are excited to have four keynote speakers confirmed for VGC 2018:
1) Dr Nick Hedley, Director of the Spatial Interface Research Lab, Simon Fraser University, Canada.
2) Dr Joseph Wartman, Director of Natural Hazards Reconnaissance Facility at the University of Washington, USA.
3) Dr Regula Frauenfelder, Physical Geographer at the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute.
4) Dr Helen Reeves, Science Director for Engineering Geology & Infrastructure at the British Geological Survey.
Short Course and Field Trip
We will be offering a short course on remote sensing applications to geohazards research and a local field trip exploring the local geology of the Kingston area on August 22nd, 2018. More details can be found on the VGC short course page. Participants can also register on the conference registration page.
