2. FLEX User Workshop
Hotel Collegium Leoninum Noeggerathstraße 34 53111 Bonn, Germany

The German FLEX project office is inviting to its second user workshop.
The German FLEX project office is inviting you to its second user workshop. This time we focus on introducing the user community and developing ideas for FLEX higher level satellite products (level 3). We would like to give interested users the opportunity to present their current research and to discuss where sun-induced fluorescence (SIF) could add value. This will lead us to a discussion about higher level satellite products. Of course, there will also be an update of the FLEX mission status, insights into the plans for FLEX calibration and validation and some peaks of the collaborative platform where FLEX data will be deployed.
The aim of the workshop is to connect SIF experts and future SIF data users to generate synergies and unlock new ways of using FLEX data.
The workshop will take place on 11.03.2025 at Hotel Collegium Leoninum Bonn and will be held in English. Food and drinks during the workshop are provided. You are very welcome to extend discussions with us afterwards over dinner. You may bring a poster to present your current work.
the registration remains open until 25.02.2025.
