International Workshops and Conferences

Slope Tectonics

The purpose of the meeting is to look at how Slope Tectonics has progressed recently. Slope tectonics is dedicated to the analysis of structures induced and reactivated by slope movements.

A great number of data around the world now documents this domain, which has been updated thanks to hazard mapping at a local scale. New technologies, such as Lidar DEM, have made structural analysis easier.

IAMG Workshop

Machine Learning Algorithms for Analysis and Modeling of GeoSpatial Data. The one day "how-to-do-it" workshop provides the cutting-edge data analysis and modeling tools by presenting concepts, algorithms, and real case studies from environmental, geological, geophysical and geographical fileds of applications.

JRDN

1ère Journées de Rencontre sur les Dangers Naturels (JRDN). Favoriser l'interaction entre le monde académique, l'Etat et le monde professionnel afin d'optimiser le support et les collaborations avec la nouvelle faculté de Géosciences et Environnement (FGSE) et tout particulièrement avec l'IGAR.

Une synergie entre UNIL et bureaux privés permet de retirer les bénefices de la recherche universitaire associés à l'expérience ainsi qu'au savoir-faire du monde privé dans le domaine des dangers naturels.

FOSS4G

Free And Open Source Software for Geoinformatics. FOSS4G2006 is a four day conference, bringing together all the Free and Open Source Software for Geoinformatics (FOSS4G) communities. The conference incorporates the OSGIS Conference, Mapserver User Meeting, GRASS Users Conference, Java oriented FOSS4G and EOGEO Workshops.

S4

Machine Learning Algorithms for Spatial Data. The topics of the workshop include: Basic principles of learning from data; Supervised and unsupervised learning; Artificial Neural Networks of different architectures and their applications to spatial data; Support Vector Machines and Support Vector Regression; Monitoring networks analysis and optimization; Classification and prediction using Machine Learining Algorithms; Machine Learning and Geostatistics.

Workshop de la FGSE

Data analysis and modelling in environmental sciences toward risk assessment and impact on society.

The aim of this workshop is to give a large overview of the environmental problems, with applications focused on natural hazards, which is a choice, others applications will have been possible.
