Objectives of the school
- Gather students from various universities working together at CRL and with different background
- Associate school teachers and high schools to the didactic program and activities
- Discover the research performed in Geophysics and Geology in the Rift of Corinth
- Learn more about SAR interferometry (SAR interferometry, the SENTINEL mission, the GEP-TEP and its application to CRL)
- Learn more about GPS (theory, measurements in the field)
- Learn more about seismology (with didactic tools) and learn more about the seismicity in the Corinth Rift
- Go on board of a marine geophysics vessel
- Learn more about geotechical aspects of the seismic hazard in the area, the case of the Rio-Antirio bridge
