Dr. Ing. Arifin Nugroho, D. E. A.
Chair of Indonesia Section IEEE AESS/GRSS Chapter
The Joint Aerospace & Electronics System Society and the Geoscience & Remote Sensing Society (AESS/GRSS) were approved to be established in Indonesia by the IEEE in May 2013. This joint chapter becomes a platform for members interested in Aerospace & Electronics as well as Geoscience & Remote Sensing.
We held various technical meetings including symposiums, conferences, seminars, workshops, tutorials, and so forth. Within a year there are one or two major engineering meetings, two tutorials, member gathering, and also member meetings for the election of the board. We also conduct international conferences independently or together with other chapters or with other national organizations such as National Institute of Aeronautics & Space (LAPAN), Agency For The Assessment And Application Of Technology (BPPT), and also with other national professional organization.
In 2018 and 2019, we conduct two workshop and AGERS conferences and one regional ChapNet Meeting. Two successful proceeding of AGERS conferences has been published in IEEE Xplore@ No. 8554091 and 8897536. In 2020, due to COVID-19 situation we will organize the 2020 IEEE Asia-Pacific Geosciences, Electronics and Remote Sensing (AGERS – 2020) as a “Virtual Conference” under cooperation with Agency for The Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT), Indonesia on December 7th-8th, 2020 in City of Jakarta, Indonesia.
This event become important conference since the theme will be specifically on “Understanding the Interaction of Land, Ocean and Atmosphere: Disaster Mitigation and Regional Resilience”. We hope that this event will be attended by Geoscientist, Engineers and Remote Sensing Experts around the world.
Since 2013, 2014, 2015, 2018, 2019 we conduct several activities such as conferences, tutorial, workshops etc. and four successful ICARES conferences which already published in IEEE Xplore® No. 7001437, 7429454, 8525355, and 8897536.
In 2020, due to COVID-19 situation we would like to announce that we will postpone the 5th IEEE International Conference on Aerospace Electronics and Remote Sensing Technology (ICARES) as a “large conference” under cooperation with National Institute of Aeronautics & Space (LAPAN) Indonesia in end of 2021. This event become large conference since the theme will be specifically on “Satellite Communication Constellation for Low Data Rate, specially for Disaster Mitigation Support“. We hope that this event will be attended by Satellite experts, engineers and practitioners around the world and could result a recommendation for satellite development in Indonesia. The event will be hosted in Bali, 2021.
Stay tune Stay Healthy…and Looking forward to your active participation…
