Chairman’s message
Everyone has some interaction with images
The primary mandate of the RSPSoc is to educate the public in the broad area of remote sensing and photogrammetry. Although these technical terms may seem somewhat, well, remote for newcomers to the field, the chief focus of the Society – imagery of the Earth – is not so far removed from everyday life. Earth images feature heavily in today’s society, from TV news reports and weather bulletins to glossy books and calendars. The Internet has raised awareness greatly, with vast image databases now helping people plan journeys, choose holidays and buy houses. Now that images of Earth are indeed everywhere, we believe this Society has something to offer everyone.
For practitioners of remote sensing and photogrammetry, in commerce, government or education, the RSPSoc offers significant professional benefits. These include scientific publications, technical meetings, marketing options and networking opportunities. The RSPSoc’s key role is to oversee and support activities within the discipline. We believe that membership (or even fellowship) of the Society is a must for all engaged in remote sensing and photogrammetry, both in the UK, and internationally.
Whoever you are, and whatever your concern in remote sensing and photogrammetry, the RSPSoc is here to serve your interests. If you have any queries about what we do or suggestions about how we could do things better, please let us know.
