Imaging Space from Space - the bigger picture

Mitigating the risk of space debris and space object identification for defence purposes require advanced imaging techniques using imaging platforms which are themselves in orbit. But with objects in space far apart from one another, and moving with very high relative velocity, how can this be achieved? Expert in Non-Earth Imaging (NEI), Catie Allen reveals.

3D Technologies and Archaeology

The use of digital survey techniques has transformed how archaeologists set about detection, recording, analysis and presentation of objects, monuments and landscapes. The exponential increase in computing power means ever more complex, detailed and accurate datasets can be collected, opening up new possibilities to the study of the historic environment. This talk will discuss some of the ways that new surveying technologies and 3D recording techniques have revolutionised field archaeology.
