Dear All,

I just wanted to flag the upcoming conference in London (29th April) on 
satellite remote sensing and global biodiversity monitoring – see

This symposium aims to bring together leading experts in biodiversity 
monitoring and satellite remote sensing to discuss ways to better capitalise 
on satellite remote sensing technology to monitor biological diversity 
globally.

entries – deadline for poster submission is 13 April
A raffle for individual attendees to win a free lunch with all of the 
individual speakers.
