All researchers, policy-makers and potential users of airborne and spaceborne data who want to become acquainted with imaging spectroscopy are invited to participate in the HyperTeach@SADC Training course in Imaging Spectroscopy (19-22 November 2007) and the Hyperspectral Research Strategy Workshop (23 November 2007) to be held at the premises of the University of Stellenbosch, Stellenbosch, South Africa.

There will be an equal focus on theory and practical hands-on exercises during the HyperTeach@SADC course. After two days of theoretical introduction, the participants can decide which of the two applications (water and aquatic ecosystems or biodiversity) they prefer to follow during a two-day parallel session with hands-on exercises.

Participation is free thanks to the kind support of sponsors (UNESCO, IOC/UNESCO, BELSPO and EWI-Vlaanderen). Participants will have access to experts in imaging spectroscopy at both the training course and workshop.
