Conference
The MDIS-2019 Conference will take place at La Petite-Pierre / Hotel "Aux Trois Roses". The accomodation and meals are free of charge. The Conference is organized in 3 thematic sessions and supposes the submission of short abstracts.
Programme and details of the Conference sessions
Wednesday 16 October 2019
14h00: Arrival at La Petite-Pierre and lunch
15h30: Workshop – Session 1: Satellite signal processing for information retrieval
This session will discuss explorative algorithms to improve information retrieval from remote sensing data (satellite and ground-based). The topic encompasses atmospheric corrections, noise reduction and non-local filtering, robust estimation of deformation, sparse signal analysis, SAR and optical data inversion, and data mining of large image datasets.
Invited speakers: Francesco de Zan (German Aerospace Survey/DLR, Köln, Germany): "Closure phases and biases in InSAR products"
Rowena Lohman (Cornell University, Ithaca, US): "Contrasts in the InSAR soil moisture response in different hyperarid environments"
19h30: Cocktail and dinner
21h30: Keynote speaker: Ferran Gascon (ESA/Esrin, Frascati, Italy): "Copernicus Sentinel-2 mission status"
Thursday 17 October 2019:
9h00 – 12h30: Workshop – Session 2: Geophysical interpretation of the deformation I
This session will discuss the analysis of deformation information for an impoved understanding of the processes shaping the Earth relief. The session will particularly focus on 1) techniques to detect tectonic, volcanic, gravitational and reservoir deformation signals and separate them from other deformation sources (e.g. hydrological, thermoelastic, anthropogenic), and 2) the modeling and interpretation of the physical mechanisms producing the deformation. The session is organized in three sub-topics:
Sub-Topic Deformation I: Tectonic, seismic and volcanic deformation processes (e.g. coseismic slip, viscoelastic relaxation, poroelastic rebound, slow slip events, long-term creep, gravity-driven postseismic deformation, dyke injection).
Invited speaker: Tim Wright (University of Leeds, UK): "What have we learned about faults from three decades of tectonic InSAR?"
12h30 – 14h00: Lunch
14h00 – 16h00: Workshop – Session 2: Geophysical interpretation of the deformation II
Sub-topic Deformation II: Surface deformation processes (e.g. landslides, glacier, permafrost, mining)
Invited speaker 1: Antoine Dille (RMCA & ULB, Brussels, Belgium): "Dynamics of slow-moving landslides from dense InSAR time series: insights from a tropical urban environment”
Invited speaker 2: Ludivine Libert (ENVEO, Innsbruck, Austria): "Status and challenges for monitoring ice motion and deformation with satellite constellations”
16h30 – 18h30: Workshop – Session 2: Geophysical interpretation of the deformation III
Sub-topic Deformation III: Reservoir deformation processes (storage reservoir, water extraction, geothermal exploitation).
Invited speakers: Alessio Rucci & Alessandro Ferretti (TRE-Altamira, Milano, Italy): "InSAR for reservoir geomechanical analyses"
19h30: Dinner
21h00: Animation – Night walk
Friday 18 october 2019:
9h00 – 12h30: Workshop – Session 3: Platforms for massive big data processing.
This session will discuss current and future satellite missions for the spatial geodesy community. The following topics will be discussed during the presentations or round table: status of recent satallite missions, responses to the science and opertational community needs, specificities of the data, future missions of interest. The session will also present and review the on-line processing services available for Earth big data analysis and massive processing.
Invited speaker: pending
12h30 – 14h00: Lunch
14h00 – 15h30: Round-table
16h00: Travel back to Strasbourg (train station, airport)
