ACRS2021

Welcome to ACRS 2021

At Can Tho University

ACRS 2021 is an annual conference for exchanging the latest development and information to promote remote sensing technology. Every year, the member countries of Asian Association on Remote Sensing (AARS) host the conference and make their best efforts for the successful conference. The theme of ACRS 2021, "Remote Sensing for Disaster Risk and Resources Degradation Reduction toward Sustainable Development", we hope to have as much smart and progressive knowledge to be shared during the event.
