Isfjord Radio Event

High North satellite technology and services

31 August - 2 September 2015 (tbd)

In the Artic satellite communications and earth observations play an increasingly important role. Commercially the High North represents opportunities for shipping to and from Europe over the polar cap and new natural resources is being considered for exploitation, such as oil and gas. From an environmental side the satellite observations are crucial to understand the climate and predict future changes. Modern technology provides far better observation data and new satellite systems are needed to handle the increased amount of data. Svalbard is perfectly located for download of data from polar orbiting satellite. The first Isfjord Radio Event addresses satellite technology and services and addresses the challenging radiowave propagation environment.

Technical and scientific programme (1 September)

1. Communication to the outskirts (NSC?)
2. Thor 7 perspective for satellite communication in the artic (TSBc?)
3. Data communications for arctic maritime environments (ESA?)
4. Earth observation overview (NASA?)
5. tbd ....

Session B (2h): Svalbard’s role for satellite Earth observation

6. Importance of Earth observations from satellite (NASA?)
7. Svalbard as location for satellite data downloading (KSAT?)
8. Climate change of concern and to explore (ESA?)
