Recent
net-based services realized the public easy access to
satellite/aerial images and other geographic information of any place
around the world at any time. Now our interest is “what comes next?”
In order to promote students and young scientists activities, AARS
(Asian Association on Remote Sensing) has organized a web contest
WEBCON1 at ACRS2011 in Taipei. Following the success of WEBCON1,
WEBCON2 was organized at ACRS2012 in Pattaya, Thailand and WEBCON3 was
orngaized at ACRS2013 in Bali, Indonesia. This year, WEBCON4 is
planned to be organized at ACRS2014 in Nay Pyi Taw, Myanmar.
The main
objective of the contest is to promote the development of web materials
which may give us a future vision of the web related to geo-information
sciences. Any
students and
young scientists who are younger than 35 and
have registered to the Asian Conference on Remote Sensing(ACRS) can
nominate their
web materials to WEBCON.
