ROBEX brings together space and deep sea research

The ROBEX Sensorworkshop takes place on April 27, 2017 in Vienna, Austria. This one day workshop is a thematically crosscutting event where space and ocean scientists come together to present state-of-the-art and future technologies, such as sensor systems and sample retrieving instruments as well as observation systems. The presentations provide a platform and stimulate discussions across the two disciplines.

Workshop goals

_ Cross fertilization of ongoing sensor developments and exploration in the field of deep sea and planetary sciences
_ Presentation of innovative observational concepts focusing on new sensors and instruments
_ Specific, cross-cutting themes like modularity, standardization in both mechanical and electronic design will be addressed
_ Preparation of an executive summary report/note of the workshop results in a well-known journal like EOS (https://eos.org).

52°North’s Dr. Simon Jikra gives a presentation on “Implementing the OGC standard Sensor Web Enablement”.
