New Zealand SAR Mission Hackathon
Event description
The hackathon, a collaborative event, is open to undergraduate or postgraduate students interested in improving their radar technology expertise through mission design. The goal is to propose a mission/instrument concept that advances the state of the art in radar remote sensing. With the objective of enhancing the participant’s understanding of mission design, demonstrate radar system synergy, and foster innovative solutions in radar remote sensing relevant to New Zealand.
Attendees will receive the necessary learning experience in remote sensing, sensor design, and development to successfully complete the hackathon. They will be introduced to:
- Integrated mission design and requirements flow.
- Demonstrate the synergy and complementarity between different SAR missions.
Students will be guided to develop a mission/instrument concept that advances the state of the art in radar remote sensing. Identify observable gaps in existing missions/systems and propose solutions to address these gaps.
The Hackathon is scheduled to take place at the University of Canterbury Ilam Campus in Ernest Rutherford Room 260. Starts at 8:30am on September 5th. Complimentary lunch and snacks will be provided, and there are opportunities available for travel scholarships. Email: rodrigo.gomezfell@canterbury.ac.nz
