Information

    The Belgian Earth Observation Day (BEODAY) is an annual event where the results of research in the domain of earth observation, mainly carried out within the framework of the STEREO (Support to Exploitation and Research in Earth Observation) programme, are presented and where the Belgian remote sensing community has ample opportunity to network. 

     

    We are happy to invite you to participate to this event.
