The activities of the Laboratory of Space Technology in 1997 are described. The Laboratory is responsible for teaching space technology at the University. Two Master of Science in Technology degrees and two Licentiate in Technology degrees were awarded. The main area in research is spaceborne and airborne remote sensing, including instrumentation, measurements and development of geophysical inversion algorithms. Six projects are funded by the European Commission and European Space Agency. The further developed HUTRAD airborne microwave radiometer system is accommodated onboard the Laboratory's Skyvan research aircraft. The aircraft was operated in several research projects. The main applications were forest inventory, snow mapping, sea ice research, water quality monitoring, and atmospheric research. Martti Hallikainen served in 1997 as President of the IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Society.
