1. COST Action ES1309: Innovative OPTIcal tools for proxiMal sensIng of ecophysiological procesSEs (OPTIMISE)
There is a need to OPTIMISE near-ground optical sampling, data management, and the interpretation of new sources of optical data so that we can make the best use of current and future satellite sensors and ground-based monitoring networks.

2. Action ES1309: OPTIMISE Work Packages
WP1. Spectral Information Systems. How to best collect, process, store, share and acknowledge spectral data?
WP3. Fluorescence and Reflectance. Best-practices for proximal sensing of fluorescence and reflectance and its interpretation.
WP2. Unmanned Aerial
Vehicles (UAVs). How can we
tap their potential in ecosystem
research?

3. Action ES1309: OPTIMISE Further Information
If you work with UAVs, if you are interested in proximal sensing of ecosystems processes such as photosynthesis, or if you are involved or interested in spectral data management you may wish to join OPTIMISE. OPTIMISE organizes regular meetings, Summer Schools and calls for short-term scientific missions where yourself or your students can apply.
