报告人简介：Eyal Ben-Dor is a full professor at the Tel Aviv University (TAU) director of The Department of Geography and Human Environment and the head of the Remote Sensing Laboratory (RSL) within this department. He has more than 20 years experience in remote sensing of the Earth with a special emphasis on the hyperspectral remote sensing (HSR) soil spectroscopy (passive and active) and environmental issues. He is a pioneer in soil reflectance spectroscopy and open this field 25 years ago. Based on his scientific achievements a new scientific discipline has established namely – soil proxy analysis and a worldwide activity is being held today based on his foundation to foster better monitoring of the environment as well as developing new ways for food production optimization. He is the author of more than 200 publications and his citation rate stands on 4300 (as for February 2015). His researches are focused on monitoring the earth from space and air domains as well as on developing innovative tools to monitor soils and minerals from all domains. He has a worldwide reputation in the HSR technology since he spent a post doc position with Prof. Alex Goetz and Dr. Fred Kruse at CSES University of Colorado at 1992-1994. He is very active within the scientific community in many directions and well recognized amongst them. He is a popular invited keynote speakers for many international conferences and workshops. He is a pioneer in many other fields than soils such as: urban and atmosphere mapping from HSR technology and has the capability to see one step ahead. He had adopted the HSR technology for ground and indoor applications and is the authors of three patents that are under commercializing direction. He served as the director of the Department of Geography from 2005-2009 and was called upon again by the university authorities in 2013 (and on). Currently he is an editor of Spectral Imaging Journal and chair of the ISPRS WG VII-3 Information Extracted from Hyper spectral Data and of the EUFAR EWG Soil Spectroscopy group (more than 250 members). He organized and chaired the 6th EARSEL SIG IS international conference in Tel Aviv at March 2009 and the Quantitative Applications of Soil Spectroscopy in Potsdam Germany on March 2010 and of a follow up workshop on 2011. He appointed as an advisor to the HysPIRI NASA mission as well as to the SHALOM ISA-ASI mission (both are HSR orbital initiatives). He serves as a consulter for many private and governmental companies world wide. He teaches several courses in soil science and remote sensing (fundamental and hyperspectral) and supervised more than 32 students for thesis (MSc and PhD) along with reviewing many dissertations proposals and scientific papers from all over the world. He earned the Mokady prize (from the Israeli Society of Soil Science) for developing the spectral application for soil in 1996 The vise president prize for excellence in science (from the Tel Aviv University) and the ISPRS research prize for 2015 (from the International Society of Photogrametry and Remote Sensing). Four of his students are absorbed as professors at several universities and other can be found in key position at commercial and governmental entities national and international.
