📢 Join us for the free Sensors Webinar! 🧠 𝗜𝗺𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗺𝗲𝗱: 𝗔 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗣𝗥 𝗜𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝗟𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗱𝗶𝗮 📅 30 October 2026 ⏰ 10:00 EDT | 15:00 CET 💻 Online Chaired by Prof. Dr. Raffaele Persico (University of Calabria), this 34th Sensors Webinar explores how Imlaymed — a new freeware code — tackles focusing and time-to-depth conversion for GPR imaging in layered media, and corrects the spurious compression of buried cavities so depth-slices can be worked out directly in the spatial domain. Featured talks include: • Main functionalities of Imlaymed (Dr. Giuseppe Esposito, IREA-Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche) • A practical demonstration of Imlaymed (Dr. Fabio Capparelli, University of Calabria) We will also open the floor for Q&A. Certificates of attendance are available for live participants, and registrations with academic/institutional email addresses are prioritized. 🆓 Free registration | Recording available if you can't attend live 👉 Register here: https://lnkd.in/gRHE3wnh Looking forward to seeing you there! Feel free to like, share, or tag colleagues working on ground-penetrating radar, geophysical imaging, or near-surface sensing. #Sensors #Webinar #GPR #RadarSensors #GeophysicalImaging #Freeware #NearSurfaceSensing
