Distinguished Experts and Scholars:
On behalf of the Academia Sinica, Ministry of the Interior, National Applied Research Laboratories and Chinese Culture University, Digital Earth Research Center is pleased to welcome you to Taipei for the 7th Taipei International Digital Earth Symposium (TIDES) 2010.
Growing in recent years to become one of the biggest geo-information events in Taiwan, in 2008 about five hundred participants came to enjoy a week of technical sessions, tutorials, exhibits and social activities. TIDES 2010 will represent a unique opportunity to meet and share ideas with a gathering of local and international scientists, engineers and educators engaged in the fields of Digital Earth, Geo-informatics and Geospatial Information Science.
During the last decade the Digital Earth concept has been commonly recognized, and the Geo-informatics technology has been widely applied in dealing with issues of global change. Continuing previous TIDES discussions on Digital Earth theory and applications, this year’s theme is “Digital Earth for the New Generation - Towards a Green Earth”, and topics are related to the fields of Earth Observation & Technology, Social Science & Education, and Environmental Change & Strategy. Our focus through these discussions is to upgrade Digital Earth education for the young generation and attract more young people to become involved in Digital Earth study, to help restore the balance now missing in our relationship with the Earth.
The venue of the symposium is the main campus of Chinese Culture University, next to the beautiful Yangmingshan National Park in Taipei. TIDES 2010 is open to everyone who is concerned about the future of planet Earth. We cordially invite you to join this event; students and young professionals are especially encouraged to participate. Looking forward to seeing you in Taiwan!
Sincerely,
Dr. Yea Chung Ding
