The event provided a great opportunity to catch up with the latest Earth observation (EO) instrumentation technologies and highlighted potential areas for licensing, collaboration and supply.
Following an introductory talk on the CEOI-ST, future technology challenges and collaborative opportunities from Mick Johnson, Director of CEOI-ST, the seven speakers delivered presentations on:
- Optical and Quantum Technologies for Earth Observation at the European Space Agency (Bruno Leone – ESA)
- Airborne Synthetic Aperture Radar technologies and product generation – Relevance to Spaceborne Systems (Geoff Burbidge – Airbus DS Ltd)
- Adhesive free bonding: from academic origin to industrial application (Christian Killow – University of Glasgow)
- UK Technology Development for Spaceborne Atmospheric Limb-Sounding Missions (Brian Moyna – STFC RALSpace)
- New UK developments in THz technology for Earth observation (Edmund Linfield – University of Leeds; Simon Rea – STFC RALSpace)
- ESA Technology Transfer Activities within the UK (Matthew Edwards – ESA TTO)
The event was highly interactive, and opened opportunities for the future collaborations.
