In early September, SIOS will offer a training course on how to effectively use remote sensing data acquired from satellites, from the air or from the ground, and their associated tools and software in the context of terrestrial research in Svalbard.

The course is intended for field scientists, Ph.D. students and technicians with no or little experience with remote sensing techniques.

Application deadline: 7 May

Here you can find some links with information about regulations related to the corona virus and Svalbard.

Due to the current situation in relation to the corona pandemic and the resulting difficulties and delays, we postpone the deadline for proposals of contributions to the SESS report 2020 to the 15 April 2020, 12:00 CEST.

Damage mitigation means for the Svalbard scientific community as response to COVID-19 - today, we need remote sensing more than ever!
