AN EXPERIENCE TO REMEMBER

IEEE GRSS SYP SUMMIT 2026

Earth observation is changing at a pace the field hasn't seen before. Artificial Intelligence is reshaping how satellite data gets analyzed, new sensors are producing imagery at a scale that would have been unthinkable a decade ago, and the range of questions Earth Observation can answer keeps expanding. The IEEE GRSS SYP Summit is where early-career researchers and engineers working at that frontier come together, to hear from leading scientists, present their own work, and build the professional connections that will define the next decade of the field. In 2026, the summit comes to Naples. Two days of talks and research in one of the most vibrant cities in Europe.

THE VENUE

Palazzo Pacanowski

  • Palazzo Pacanowski sits on the Monte di Dio hill in Naples' San Ferdinando district, overlooking the Gulf of Naples. Designed by architect Davide Pacanowski and built in the 1960s, the building belongs to Università degli Studi di Napoli Parthenope. Its U-shaped structure opens onto a garden with a direct sea view, making it one of the most distinctive academic venues in southern Italy.

Growing Together, Beyond Research.

Our goal is to create a space where early-career researchers and students in Earth observation can share their work, meet their future collaborators, and think seriously about where the field, and their careers, are heading.
