Liu Jingnan is an Academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a professor at Wuhan University. He received his MS degree from Wuhan Institute of Surveying and Mapping in 1982, and served as the president of Wuhan University from 2003 to 2008. He has 11 years industrial experience and nearly 30 years academic experience in geodesy. His research interests lie in geodesy theories, methods, software and data processing, and he is an important figure in the application of global positioning technology in China. He was awarded the National Prize for Progress in Science and Technology in 1988 and 2001 for his remarkable contributionsin GPS studies.
YANG Yuanxi (1956 - )
Yang Yuanxi is an Academician of the CAS and a professor at the China National Administration of GNSS and Applications. He graduated from Zhengzhou Institute of Surveying and Mapping in 1977, and received his MS degree in 1987. In 1991, he received his PhD degree from the Institute of Geodesy and Geophysics of CAS.
He has served as the secretary of the International Association of Geodesy’s Commission 4, deputy director of the China Geodesy Committee, and associate editor of the Journal of Geodesy. He has been awarded the National Outstanding Youth Fund, German Humboldt Scholarship, and has twice received the National Prize for Progress in Science and Technology. He has also led the projects “2000 national GPS geodetic controlled network data processing” and “national astro-geodetic and space network joint adjustment,” and has published five monographs (three co-authored) and more than 200 papers.
