Stanford University is hosting the 3rd annual Polar Technology Conference on the 26th (Thu) & 27th (Fri) of April 2007 at Building G - Main Conference Room, SRI International in Menlo Park, California, USA. The primary purpose of this conference is to bring together polar scientists and technology groups for a planned technology development and to explain, discuss various technology issues they face during their projects.

Stanford University's Space Systems Design Laboratory (SSDL), has been for several years, assisting polar researchers and commercial operators, build and deploy weather stations, satellite subsystems, remote communication, telemetry, robotics and extreme environment engineering systems. For participants sharing such technology solutions, discussing issues faced while developing extreme engineering systems is also one of the goals of this meeting. Participants being invited are from the private sector, state and federal agencies, non governmental organizations, and academia.

Please register online if you plan to attend. We invite presentations, specifically focusing in the area of telescience & remote sensing. The final agenda, and 2007 list of participants and the topics they will be presenting, will be posted soon. Last year's (2006) list of participants is listed here. Accomodation is available near the conference center. Click here for hotel information. And click here for directions to the Building G - Main Conference Room, SRI International, where the conference will be held. SSDL can also assist in travel planning. Please contact Prof. Robert Twiggs or Roy Stehle for additional information.
