The International Federation of Hydrographic Societies' Hydro conferences are acknowledged as important forum for innovative ideas and exploring emerging technologies, applications and practical experiences within all sectors of hydrography. This year Hydro returns to the picturesque setting of Rostock-Warnemünde on the Baltic coast of Germany from the 8-10th November.

The recently published Hydro 2016 conference programme features a total of 54 presentations in the conference auditorium, together with a range of optional workshops, demonstrations and technical visits. The presentations are arranged in one keynote and fourteen themed sessions – eight of which are offered in four parallel time slots.

Delegate registration is now open, with discounted rates offered to members of all IFHS-member societies and concessions available for students and the retired. An additional Early Bird discount applies to full member/non-member 3-day registrations paid for by 31st July.

All delegate fees include tea/coffee, lunch and access to the Conference, Exhibition, Ice-Breaker and Flying Buffet receptions, plus many user seminars, on-water equipment demonstrations and technical visits.

All delegates must complete the online registration form and bookings will only be confirmed on receipt of full payment.
