Vision
To increase the use and understanding of new aerial and satellite-based data for remote sensing by facilitating education, training, and resources to the public and private sectors.
Mission
Access to data and information that can inform how stakeholders can solve tangible, real-world problems using new technology
Demystify the use of sensors that may not yet be considered mainstream across the majority of remote sensing verticals / user domains
Increase the awareness of the tools and workflows needed to exploit these emerging sensors and data
Objectives
Provide a bridge between academia, industry and the vendors providing new sensors and data, to increase understanding and accelerate adoption of the new technology
Enable all remote sensing users to better
Increase membership in ASPRS by offering opportunities specific to members (individuals and organizations) related to data access, testing and updates.
Utilize the Joint Agency Commercial Imagery Evaluation (JACIE) initiative as a means to share information and communicate with the remote sensing community around calibration and validation.
