EUFAR - Survey on evaluating the future needs of airborne research

Dear colleague,EUFAR (EUropean Facility for Airborne Research; www.eufar.net<http://www.eufar.net>) is an 'Integrating Activity' funded by the European Commission under FP5/FP6, and currently under FP7.EUFAR works to coordinate the operation of instrumented aircraft and hyperspectral imaging sensors, exploiting the skills of experts in airborne measurements in the fields of environmental and geo-sciences, in order to provide researchers with the infrastructure best suited to their needs.In order to evaluate the capability of the existing fleet in response to the scientific needs, to provide directions for enhancing the capability of the fleet, and to outline strategies for the long-term development of the fleet, a questionnaire has been prepared in order to get feedback from the European scientific community. We would like to invite you to take part in this survey. To open the questionnaire, just click on the link below:http://www.surveygizmo.com/s3/1888533/TestThis link is your private invitation to take part in the survey.
