DESCRIPTION:Overview:\nThe emergence of low-cost and easy-to-use Unmanned A
 erial Systems (UAS)\, commonly referred to as drones\, has lead to an expl
 osion of their use for numerous applications. In particular\, these new pl
 atforms have enabled new imaging and earth remote sensing technologies and
  applications previously unavailable due to the high cost of manned aircra
 ft or satellites. This workshop will bring together academics\, industry r
 epresentatives\, and domain specialists to share perspectives on this rapi
 dly evolving topic.\n\nAbstract &amp; Presentation (OR) Paper &amp; Presentation S
 ubmission:\nThe workshop will have a two-track submission process for prog
 ram consideration. You can either submit an abstract (plus presentation) o
 r a 4-page paper (plus presentation). See details below.\n\nThe first trac
 k is for workshop participants who desire to share their work during the c
 onference without submitting a full paper. This first track will require a
 n abstract only for program consideration.\n\nThe second track is for auth
 ors wishing to present a full paper to be published in the proceedings\, w
 hich will be archived in IEEE Xplore. A four-page IEEE style paper is requ
 ired and will undergo a full peer-review process for those wishing to seek
  this option.\n\nProgram will include both oral and poster sessions\, as w
 ell as breaks for networking\, browsing exhibits and live demonstrations.\
