🌃 Science by day, the Potomac by night — the IGARSS 2026 Banquet sets sail.

This year's banquet trades formal programming for connection, taking attendees aboard a scenic Potomac River cruise with Washington, D.C.'s skyline glowing in the background.
It's the evening to step away from the sessions, unwind, and build the relationships that make IGARSS more than just a conference.

Because some of the best collaborations start over dinner, not slides.

Aboard the cruise, you'll enjoy:
💠A curated dinner service with sweeping views of the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial from the water
💠Indoor comfort and open-air decks to take in the D.C. skyline by night
💠Onboard DJs spinning popular favorites all evening
💠Bonus: time to relax and network with colleagues and friends from around the world

🗓 Wednesday, 12 August 2026
🕖 7:30 PM – 10:00 PM (Transport pick-up 6:30 PM | Dock loading 7:00 PM)
📍 City Cruises, 580 Water St SW, Washington, DC 20024
🚌 All pick-ups & drop-offs at the Washington Hilton's T Street entrance

Who are you most looking forward to catching up with on the water?

🌟 Article of the Week 🌟

This week’s featured article from IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing (J-STARS) highlights advances in deep learning for multitemporal remote sensing image change detection.

🔍 This Week’s Highlight
Title: B2CNet: A Progressive Change Boundary-to-Center Refinement Network for Multitemporal Remote Sensing Images Change Detection

Authors: Zhiqi Zhang, Liyang Bao, Shao Xiang, Guangqi Xie, Rong Gao

📖 🛰️ In this article, the authors propose B2CNet, a progressive change detection network guided by change boundary awareness and a boundary-to-center refinement strategy. The network enhances fine-grained boundary detection and improves internal region consistency by integrating boundary-aware modules and bitemporal feature aggregation, leading to more accurate change detection in multitemporal remote sensing images.

🔈Introducing GID — A Large‑Scale Land‑Cover Dataset for High‑Resolution Remote Sensing!
🌍150 pixel‑level annotated Gaofen‑2 satellite images with wide geographic coverage across China.
📡Including both a large‑scale classification set and a fine land‑cover classification set with 30,000 multi‑scale patches.
🗂️15 land‑cover categories, fully labeled, designed for training and evaluating transferable deep models.
🔎Ideal for land‑cover mapping, cross‑sensor generalization, and domain adaptation — validated on GF‑1, Jilin‑1, ZY‑3, Sentinel‑2A, and Google Earth imagery.

🌊 Happy World Oceans Day! 💙

Nearly 40% of the world’s population lives within 100 km of a coastline, making ocean monitoring essential for protecting coastal communities, safeguarding marine ecosystems, and building a more resilient future.
Covering more than 70% of Earth’s surface, the ocean is fundamental to life on our planet. It supports diverse ecosystems, sustains livelihoods, and plays a critical role in regulating the global climate system.

The IEEE GRSS supports research, innovation, and standards that advance the generation, distribution, and use of interoperable Earth observation data products. Within GRSS, the Standards for Earth Observation (GSEO) Technical Committee fosters the development and promotion of technical standards for Earth-observing systems and products, helping improve the adoption and usability of remote sensing data across science, industry, and society.

🌊 🛰️ To learn more about GSEO, its standards activities, ongoing initiatives, and how to get involved, visit the GSEO Technical Committee page:
