The tool applies novel processing to Sentinel-2 and drone-borne spectral signatures, to identify problem sites and track pollution at a local level.
heatwAIve
Status date: 17 December 2020
Extreme heat has a negative effect on human health. Due to climate change more intense and frequent heatwaves are expected to occur. The aim of the heatwAIve project was to develop an AI-based voice assistant to inform people about the risk of heatwaves and to provide them with behavioural recommendations. The related information is derived from Copernicus Earth observation (EO) and weather data.
AIDOPS
Status date: 16 December 2020
AIDOPS provides monitoring services based on artificial intelligence for automatic detection of objects and patterns in satellite images. AIDOPS concentrates on the fields of agriculture and forestry. The long-term goal is to provide new automated ways of assessment for inventories and monitoring to detect damage caused by bugs or climate in crops and forests at an early stage.
MonICATO
Status date: 18 December 2020
MoniCATO proposes a backward compatible solution to secure the use of satellite-derived time in devices used by power grids (like Phasor Measurement Units and Intelligent Electronic Devices), combining authenticated Galileo signals, digital identity and Distributed Public Key Infrastructure (DPKI). Overall, the project proposes a new concept for the secure transmission of timing data among the nodes of the network and offers enhanced services for the monitoring of intentional interfering and cyber-attacks against GNSS signals and network devices.
VinoSAT
Status date: 17 December 2020
VinoSAT transforms EO Sentinel-2 imagery into readily available information that will change decision making in vineyards.
VinoSAT services are tailored to address the main vineyard monitoring needs and become a powerful tool in the hands of grape growers and winemakers.
Space for Sanitation - Woodco
Status date: 18 December 2020
This Feasibility Study explores business opportunities for the utilisation of satellite earth observation data, satellite communication and terrestrial communications to link toilets and sewage treatment facilities to wider sensor networks, to significantly augment sanitation management and the monitoring of public health.
GREy (former BFPaaS)
Status date: 07 January 2021
The terrain profiles play increasingly critical role in the risk assessment of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) operations planning and related risk assessment.
The BFPaaS project is a continuation of the feasibility study on the same topic and will end up in a creation of an automated system providing terrain profile (derived from the Sentinel-1 radar imagery and other data sources) along the pre-defined route.
CarbonSpace
Status date: 15 December 2020
CarbonSpace is an AI and satellite-powered B2B SaaS platform for remote carbon footprint tracking that provides organizations with actionable insights to tackle climate change.
GrassSignal
Status date: 14 December 2020
GrassSignal provides an accurate, scalable and reliable decision support tool for sustainable rangeland, grassland and pasture monitoring. Using Earth Observation data and Machine Learning/AI, GrassSignal, powered by Deep Planet’s AI platform, predicts grassland properties at 90% accuracy.
OPTIMAL4
Status date: 11 December 2020
Discover the most profitable crops and markets for you, just by drawing your site.
ES-LR
Status date: 11 December 2020
ES-LR™ is an IoT dedicated to the equestrian community. Its aim is to improve the security and safety of search & rescue (S&R) operations and eventually save more lives.
ECDPIF
Status date: 10 December 2020
MONITORED AI is a space-based application aimed at Detection & Prevention of Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) fishing for different stakeholders involved in the monitoring of Environmental Crimes in Europe and Beyond. The AI powered solution integrates Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery and Automatic Identification System (AIS) to autonomously detect dark vessels (no AIS transmission) and spot suspicious behaviour.
4D Urban Insights
Status date: 09 December 2020
4D Urban Insights creates maps of fast growing areas and makes urban dynamics visible and actionable. By applying Machine Learning, changes in horizontal and vertical spread can be detected automatically and early warnings can be shown to users.
CoDRIVE
Status date: 09 December 2020
Better travel experience for the public by providing reliable and efficient real-time situational awareness and traffic information for optimal decision making;
Providing car manufacturers with highly integrated low-cost geospatial information platform, which could be integrated with ADAS or CAVs;
Enabling smart network management for local authorities, promoting efficient traffic control, safer route planning, thereby reducing congestion and the carbon footprint.
NIVCS
Status date: 23 November 2020
NIVCS is a project that leverages Oceanbolt’s ability to process and analyze AIS signals, leveraging the latest big data processing analytics frameworks and the extensive Global Navigation Satellite Systems. The aim of the project is to help combat illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing, while providing transparency into fishery emissions.
PV Forecast Service
Status date: 09 November 2020
The global deployment of solar PV electricity generation is hampered by the unpredictability of the power generated. Better PV forecasts would allow electricity system operators to schedule alternative electricity generation earlier, hence reducing system costs and carbon intensity. Addressing climate change as effectively as possible is at the core of Open Climate Fix’s mission.
