CONFERENCE INFORMATION

Since its establishment in 1990, the Pan Ocean Remote Sensing Conference (PORSEC) has rapidly
gained global status as one of the most prestigious Remote Sensing Conference in the world, with
a scope covering all world oceans.
PORSEC is an organization dedicated to helping developing nations stimulate their science programs
with focus on the applications of remote sensing technology in Ocean Sciences. PORSEC has provided
over a decade of effort with scientists from over thirty countries participating in conferences once
every two years.

The Indonesian National University of Udayana, together with National Institute of Aeronautics
and Space (LAPAN), are privileged to host PORSEC 2014, the Twelfth Biennial Conference with the
theme "Ocean Remote Sensing for Sustainable Resources" in Denpasar Bali, Indonesia during
November 4
th
-7
th
, 2014.

The conference will review and discuss the state of ocean remote sensing and will help
scientists and students involved in ocean-atmosphere studies using remote sensing techniques to
benefit from interactions with the experts participating from all over the globe. The conference will
also provide an opportunity to showcase the research work carried out using remote sensing
techniques from various satellite missions and the applications of ocean remote sensing for societal
benefits.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
The conference will be conducted through several plenary talks and presentation of scientific
papers (oral and poster) organized under special and general sessions relevant to the conference
theme Ocean Remote Sensing for Sustainable Resources.
We are now inviting papers for special and general scientific/technical sessions that are relevant
to all areas of ocean remote sensing.
The abstracts/papers should be submitted online at http://porsec2014.unud.ac.id The on-line
abstract submission will be opened from December 1
