Dear colleagues,

It is a great pleasure to invite you to the APPN Workshop on Multispectral 3D Plant Imaging which will take place October 12^th & 13^th 2017 at the Vienna Biocenter.

For the workshop, PHENOSPEX will visit the VBC with their new PlantEye F500 device and perform multispectral 3D scans of your samples.

Your plants will be grown at the VBCF PlantS Facility and scanned one day before the workshop. Therefore, we need to receive your seeds in advance (deadline_1).

Hands-on data analysis will be performed during the workshop - follow-up discussion of derived results will be discussed on the second day in individual meetings.

“PlantEye F500 is a 3D laser scanner combined with multispectral information. It generates 3D point clouds of plants in high resolution and combines it on the fly with a 4-channel multispectral camera in the range of 400-900nm. This unique sensor fusion concept delivers spectral information for each data point and automatically computes a diverse set of validated morphological plant parameters.”

Key dates:

Workshop: 12^th Oct. 20017

Discussion of results: 13^th Oct. 2017

Registration: www.appn.at/registration

Deadline_1: 1^st Sept. 2017 (if you want your samples to be scanned)

Deadline_2: 1^st Oct. 2017 (general registration deadline)

Please note that there is a limited number of participants – the first come first serve principle applies.

Attached to this email please find the workshop flyer for publishing. Please help us to spread the news!

We are very much looking forward to meeting you at the Vienna Biocenter in October!

Kind regards,

Jakub Jez & the organizing committee (Stefanie Koemeda, Anneliese Auer & Klara Wuketich)
