Program Highlights

We are pleased to announce that the 2nd International Natural Resources User Group Meeting will take place in April 2023 in Granada, Spain.

This User Group Meeting is a live two-day meeting with a full program of technical presentations, social events, and networking. A varied program of informative and practical presentations from our global users and technical experts from industry and research awaits you on-site in this beautiful setting.

Attendees will have the opportunity to share with other users during a series of interactive sessions, and will also get a preview of technological advances. One of our goals is the exchange of ideas and experiences with the community, so there will be time for Q&A as well as panel discussions, and opportunities for networking over dinner.


In addition to the meeting, we have prepared a few highlights you can look forward to:

  • Cultural event
  • Network Dinner

Submit your abstract

The User Group thrives on interesting discussions of actual experiences and exchanges with the participants. We would be delighted to offer you time for a short presentation to share results of your research or insights with the user community. We have a limited number of opportunities over the course of our two-day conference, so be certain to submit your abstract as soon as possible. Feel free to submit your abstract with your registration, or you may follow-up at a later time with your abstract. Starting with the official registration period, the possibility to submit an abstract opens.

  • Talks will be 15 minutes long, with a 5-minute Q&A session following
  • Presentations will be shared with the speakers permission
