BROWSE PROJECTS
Based on user needs and industry skills, the evolution of customized solutions and the establishment of innovative services is accomplished through project activities. Focusing on various thematic areas, relevant information on the project activities is provided below.
SENO
Status date: 28 January 2024
The SENO demonstration project aims to rapidly and efficiently deploy a high throughput and low latency satellite communications service to serve as a reliable and independent communication channel for the needs of humanitarian organizations in Dori (Burkina Faso). In this way, humanitarian actors would be able to offer IP-based services to Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) and to the local community, while also improving the working conditions of their staff. Based on the success of the pilot and the market demand, the service could be scaled-up to other locations in and outside Burkina Faso.
3E Solar Data Services
Status date: 28 January 2024
3E Project Development solution provides accurate and bankable satellite-based solar irradiation data for solar power modelling: 3E Solar Irradiation Data. It is your go-to application to assess the long-term yield of future solar assets, improve the return on investment and evaluate operational plant performance.
PeaceEye
Status date: 27 January 2024
Monitoring and understanding of armed conflicts, Humanitarian-Development-Peace nexus.
DAPV
Status date: 27 January 2024
An advanced data-driven AI enabled, earth observation and ground data based, software solution for forecasting of energy production, crop growth/yield, O&M as well as design and economics in Agri-PV.
MiLoW-RRS-DP-2
Status date: 21 December 2022
Following customer requests for expanding the initial service offering of the Micro Local Weather Route Recommendation Service’s high-resolution weather forecasts, new services for snow depth information, weather warnings, a short-term precipitation radar map, and high resolution climatologies were developed to provide better assistance and reduce weather-related risks for planning and undertaking safe outdoor activities.
SeaScope
Status date: 23 January 2024
CGG’s SeaScope service increases knowledge on the presence, characteristics and behaviour of oil pollution in marine and coastal environments by combining deep interpretative understanding with the unique spatial, spectral and textural information contained within historical and frequently acquired contemporary satellite images.
WARM
Status date: 22 January 2024
WARM uses Machine Learning to identify water stress based on satellite and remote sensing data. The result is a water resilience map that covers entire basins and also shows water availability, water accessibility, and water quality in detailed areas.
GSM (Golden Soils Monitoring)
Status date: 16 January 2024
Seqana is a Berlin-based startup developing a digital Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV) service for soil organic carbon offset and inset projects, using Machine Learning (ML) and Earth Observation technologies. This Kick-Start project aimed to enable Seqana to acquire new ground truth datasets and to calibrate its ML models in Cambodia, Germany, and Kenya/Tanzania in collaboration with its local partners, respectively SmartAgro, CO2-Land, and Justdiggit. The relative improvement in accuracy metrics that Seqana achieved for each of the three calibrated regional models were an average increase in the final point-level test R^2 of 160% and an average reduction in point-level test Root Mean Square Error of at least 20%.
O-BOY
Status date: 10 January 2024
O-BOY is the first wrist-wearable that contains a satellite transmitter - therefore operates outside the range of mobile phones - and will offer a total package of services that can be lifesaving for athletes and adventurers in remote areas.
EOSports
Status date: 10 January 2024
The service aims at assessing the environmental impact of large sporting events.
The environmental impact is composed of the short-term impacts on Air (pollution), vegetation (trampling), and waste - all three part of the proposed feasibility study - as well as the medium-term impact regarding urban heat contribution.
AirTracks
Status date: 08 January 2024
AirTracks is a flexible and cost-efficient Air Navigation Information Service for enhanced aircraft safety during approach and departure at small and medium aerodromes which do not have any aeronautical surveillance system (e.g. Radars). Airtracks combines various aircraft surveillance information (ADS-B, Mode-S, etc) in the vicinity of an airfield. The information can be visualized on a web-based display, showing the relevant/customized ancillary information layers in a user-friendly way e.g. flight plan, aeronautical charts, meteorological information as well as safety related notifications to aircraft pilots (NOTAMS).
AirTracks
Status date: 05 July 2018
Situational awareness is key in the aviation industry. Whereas many flight information services for scheduled air services transporting passengers, mail or cargo already exist, solutions for other parts of the aviation industry are scarce good. AirTracks is a dedicated flight information service solution that focusses on customer information needs in the fields of UAV and general aviation.
Forests from Space
Status date: 26 December 2023
Treedom is the first non-productive, privately financed online planting platform that allows consumers and businesses to plant trees remotely and follow their storylines. Satellite images and their elaboration will provide engagement and transparency tools to our customers and users.
SatPDT-Demo
Status date: 26 December 2023
The SatPDT project aims to develop an innovative satellite-based digital product, called SmartPDT, that enables a safe and effective daylight therapy (daylight photodynamic therapy or dPDT) of skin pre-cancer and cancer, e.g. Actinic Keratosis (AK).
SP4GO
Status date: 26 December 2023
SP4GO is a solution to support the maintenance of electric power distribution infrastructures. SP4GO uses cost-effective and high-resolution satellite data to reduce inefficiencies and maintenance costs of high voltage power lines by detecting potentially dangerous situations related to the overgrowth of vegetation, the construction of new buildings that come too close to infrastructure and detecting land terrain change.
SP4GO is targeted to electric power Transmission System Operators (TSO) and electric power Distribution System Operators (DSO).
Space-to-Tree S-2-3
Status date: 26 December 2023
S-2-3 a multi-scale/parametric system aimed at monitoring the health status of trees within parks of historical-cultural or naturalistic interest. Objectives: defend the beauty of the tree, archaeological and monumental heritage; monitor the environment; manage risks to people or property. The data is enjoyed through webGIS platform with dual functionality: cataloguing trees; Monitoring the dynamics of trees with respect to wind.
OSCAR
Status date: 26 December 2023
Space-data surveillance service for effective vessel management, enabling greater efficiencies in the planning of construction and the maintenance of offshore wind farms.
