CEDAR email: Save the Date: First International Workshop on Small Satellites for Space Weather Research & Forecasting

[Robert Robinson]

MEETING: First International Workshop on Small Satellites for Space Weather
Research & Forecasting,  Washington, DC, August 1 - 4, 2017

The Small Satellites for Space Weather Research and Forecasting workshop is
the first dedicated scientific meeting focusing on specific needs of space
weather studies using smallsat platforms.

We invite a broad scope of contributions related to the applications of
small satellites to space weather observations, research, analyses,
forecasting, and operations, including those utilizing the CubeSat
reference design.

The overarching goal of the workshop is to identify target scientific
questions, geospace domains, and space weather conditions for which small
satellites have a decisive advantage over traditional space weather
monitoring platforms.
We will also seek to determine major scientific, engineering, and
programmatic challenges in developing dedicated small satellite space
weather missions of the future, and to explore the unique training
opportunities smallsat-based
space weather research & forecasting can offer to academic institutions.

More details soon.
