Session Infomation

Remote sensing of our Earth system has significantly evolved over the past decade, driven by advances in satellite instrumentation and remote sensing theory, as well as the explosive usage of AI in retrievals. Observations from CubeSats and SmallSats are now starting to play increasingly important roles. This session aims to bring together leading scholars, industry experts, and young scientists to discuss the latest developments in spaceborne remote sensing of our Earth system, highlighting novel observational capabilities, retrieval methods, theoretical approaches, and AI applications that are shaping the future of Earth observation.
