AAG 2016 - 2016 Early Career Scholar in Remote Sensing Award

In recognition of the 100th Anniversary of the Association of American Geographers (AAG) in
2004, the AAG Remote Sensing Specialty Group (RSSG) established a competition to recognize
"exemplary research scholarship in remote sensing" by individuals with a doctorate degree in
Geography or allied fields. The recipient will receive a certificate. The award will be announced
at the 2016 AAG Business Meeting of the RSSG and recognized at the AAG Honors Luncheon.
The competition will be based on the quality of applicants' research achievements, indicated
mainly by journal publications. Multi-authored journal papers are eligible; but the applicant should
be the first author, and should also submit a statement to indicate that she/he is responsible for over
50% of the research and writing of the paper.
The Awards Committee reserves the right to cancel this award due to insufficient quality or quantity
of submissions.
Qualified individuals are invited to submit (e-mail preferred) an application package to Ming
