Stanford University and SRI International announce the 4th Annual Polar
Technology Conference bringing together scientists and technology
developers to exchange information on research system operational needs
and technology solutions that have been successful in polar
environments. The forum will address issues of design, implementation,
and deployment of systems, with the aim of achieving research goals in
the Polar Regions. The conference will be held on Thursday and Friday,
24-25 April 2008, at SRI International, in Menlo Park, California.
Participants are invited to present on their current work and / or
research needs. Abstracts should be submitted online at the time of
registration. Past participants have come from the private sector, state
and federal agencies, non-governmental organizations and academic
institutions. Presentations typically cover system requirements for
proposed research in addition to descriptions of systems and approaches
that have proven successful in polar deployments. Typical hardware
topics include weather stations, robotics, power systems, telemetry, and
remote communications. A list of previous participants and presentation
topics can be found at the conference website.
The conference organizers encourage a review of the website, regardless
