Prof. Haas is a professor in Space Geodesy and an expert in Geodetic VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry).
Prof. Haas is a professor in Space Geodesy and an expert in Geodetic VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry).
VLBI is a space-geodetic technique that enables us to estimate the motions of the solid Earth, both the Earth as a whole in space, as well as local, regional, and global displacements of the Earth’s surface. For more information about VLBI see this link and this link. In the Netherlands, the Westerbork radio telescopes are used for VLBI. Professor Haas will talk about the status and future of the technology and its applications.

The biennial prof. J.M. Tienstra Research prize, named in honor of prof. Tienstra, will be awarded by the chair of the jury, prof. Peter Teunissen, to a nominated candidate who has carried out exemplary geodetic research in the Netherlands or to a Dutch scientist who has done so abroad. The laureate will give a plenary key note lecture.
