Dr. Jabari's Ph.D. research focused on an important but also technically challenging topic in remote sensing, namely change detection using optical images collected from different viewing angles. Her patent-pending solution unveiled the potential of using all the available mainstream high-resolution satellite images and aerial photos for change detection -- saving time and cost for disaster relief.

More than 100 guests attended the event on Parliament Hill in Ottawa. Among them were students and postdoctoral fellows from universities and colleges across the country, along with their mentors, members of Parliament, senators, political staff, and research funding leaders.
