It provides real-time insights to boost both ecological and financial value.

A revolutionary data-driven Decision Support Tool that leverages EO and AI to enable food producers to increase yields whilst lowering costs and emissions due to nitrogen application.

A geospatial intelligence platform leveraging satellite data to optimize CAP compliance, agricultural monitoring, and natural capital management. The project delivers scalable, data-driven solutions for farmers, policymakers, and businesses, enhancing efficiency, sustainability, and regulatory adherence while driving innovation in biodiversity and carbon markets.

The Coastal Ecosystems – MRV service provides monitoring, reporting and verification of conservation and restoration of coastal ecosystems such as mangroves and saltmarshes. Through innovate use of satellite earth observation, key ecosystem characteristics, such as ecosystem extent, above-ground biomass and ecosystem changes are measured. The service supports the development of functional natural capital markets by providing valuable inputs for establishing the integrity of carbon and biodiversity credits. 

Unlock the future of carbon project success with UTE's EO-based rating service for agricultural, coastal, and urban areas. Empower developers, insurers, and standards issuers to derisk, optimize, and transform carbon projects into impactful investments.

AquaMap is Marble Imaging’s geospatial decision-support tool that uses Earth Observation (EO) data and environmental data to identify optimal aquaculture sites, supporting food security and reducing financial losses. With global seafood demand soaring and EO-based solutions still nascent, AquaMap taps into a high growth market with scalable, data driven analytics. By computing an Aquaculture Suitability Index (ASI), AquaMap presents an easily understandable scalable way to identify optimal locations, mitigate risks, and improve sustainability in aquaculture planning and investment

Surface Water and Land Use Monitoring (SWALUM) integrates deep learning with Sentinel-2   satellite imagery to detect small water bodies that traditional satellite monitoring misses. This   innovative service provides municipalities, agricultural technology providers, and environmental   services with reliable, cost-effective water mapping for flood management, irrigation optimization,   and carbon credit verification, addressing critical needs in climate adaptation and water resource   management. 

The pavement weeding efforts in gravel and stone pavement can be significantly reduced, if robotic technology can be used to automate large parts of this tedious task. Utilizing GNSS navigation and sensor fusing, and combining it with intelligent water dispensing, Heibjerg has enabled a small robots to carry out this task. 

Today there are many roads, especially in rural areas, where cellular network coverage is inadequate to sustain reliable Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). The SATV2X pilot aims to address this issue by integrating satellite and 5G terrestrial networks. This integration will provide ubiquitous V2X (vehicle-to-everything) radio coverage, enhancing road safety use cases through a C-ITS Platform.

The Pemberton Biodiversity Portal leverages a time series of UAV, aerial, and satellite data, alongside derived data which is ground-truthed and then compiled into a federated biodiversity metrics dataset to provide data consumers with accredited automated remote measurement and tracking of biodiversity.
 

This activity is a study aimed at assessing the feasibility of the development of a service based on satellite assets and cutting edge informatic technologies for a more effective management of level crossing monitoring and maintenance and the increase of road users’ safety at railroad intersections. The conceived service is proposed in response to the need of decreasing level crossing accident occurrence and, thus, making railroad intersection safer. The feasibility of service development is studied from a technical and economical point of view. The best compromise between costs and high performance is foreseen and finally achieved. 

Leveraging space assets (Earth Observation and Satellite Communication) to develop a Digital Twin tool as a service, supporting sustainable and resilient agriculture in Africa. 

The ambition of nEmO is to deliver fish catch predictions through data models that integrate fishing activity and environmental data, complemented by an EO-based toolbox. This toolbox displays environmental maps and offers simple multivariate analysis for selected fish species, providing valuable insights for fishermen. Integrating fish catch predictions and EO-based information enables to create more accurate assessments of fish stock abundance and maximizing operational usability within the industry. This synergy strengthens the effectiveness of the service, increasing the likelihood of market acceptance and adoption. 

Hidromod's AquaFarm project focuses on optimizing water management, integrating field-level monitoring and modeling with national-scale analysis. It enables sustainable resource use, and improved crop productivity through advanced simulation tools and decision-support systems tailored for water managers and policymakers.

Water quality digital twin bridges together AMR abundance values with EO observation water quality markers extracted from Copernicus Marine. This project proved the feasibility to predict AMR abundance values in water utilizing machine learning models trained on 30 water quality, oceanographic, biochemistry parameters such as alkalinity, water pH, turbidity, sea water salinity, sea water velocity. etc.)

AquaGuard Technologies revolutionizes maritime safety and environmental protection. Our AI-powered geospatial SaaS platform proactively detects abandoned derelict vessels (ADV’s), minimizing environmental  pollution & damage, helping to advance a circular economy and enhancing resilience to climate change.
