Providing continuous updates on hydro reservoir filling levels by means of Earth Observation data & machine learning to improve power price forecasting, production planning and market analysis and energy trading.

SEIA is a solution supporting distribution network operators to perform faster, safer, more accurate and ecologically friendly asset monitoring and assessments. Our algorithm leverages state-of-the-art technological advances in machine learning to automate the monotonous and repetitive aspects of condition estimation of energy transmission network towers. This allows cost-effective funding decisions based on automated analysis of assets’ condition in aerial photography. 

SMRC intends to create a school map in rural communities with the help of satellite data, applying computer vision to earth observation data.

Using civil aircraft as a platform to collect AIS data, complementing existing terrestrial and satellite solutions, enhancing AIS data availability.

4S Safety of Future Transport is a study undertaken within the frame of the 4S Strategic Programme Line that aims at identifying a list of applications that will use highly innovative and secure  Satellite Communication systems to support safety critical services within the transportation industry (Aviation, Maritime and Railway). 

360blue is an information and software suite to determine water related risks, support optimization of water management, and asses water replenishment activities.

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.

ADVISER (AugmenteD VIrtual reality SErvice for Renewable energy) aims to empower Decision Support satellite and UAVs based i-EM SAT services combined with mixed reality capabilities to provide support for the Planning & Construction and the Operation & Maintenance of renewable energy power plants: VR-AR technologies, coupled with the utilization of space assets, could empower O&M activities, in terms of cost savings, effectiveness of the interventions and safety.

3DE is a Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) solution targeted at the energy sector that facilitates the management of geospatial data for Right of Way Management and Asset Inspection. Using remote sensing technologies (satellite, aircraft, and drones) combined with machine learning techniques, 3DE improves predictive maintenance work practices, increases the safety of operational personnel, and reduces Operations and Maintenance (O&M) costs.

The project “3TIMS” focuses on the on-board monitoring of the completeness of freight trains, because the lack of electrical power supply at its wagons prevented a safe solution so far. 3TIMS involves rail stakeholders and investigates fusion of three technologies (GNSS, IMU, Brake Pipe monitoring), plus M2M radio link, to establish the design and consolidating it by a proof-of-concept analysis.

The ASSURE project aims to integrate a space-based application device (GNSS and SatCom) with blockchain technology to continuous monitoring of surface displacements. ASSURE is used to monitor area subject to land deformation and on critical infrastructure subject to external forces endangering their stability with a certified device and thus with certified data.

AGESPOT is a completely new technological development based on satellite earth observation data offering services that allow access to precise data on WHERE and HOW MANY people, under consideration of their ages and socio-economic attributes, currently live and will likely live in the FUTURE.

ADS-B Xplore elaborates innovative service ideas targeting:

• Big data applications based on air traffic surveillance data
• A global communication solution accessible for every aircraft to support safety and flight route optimization
• Safe coexistence of manned and unmanned air traffic

AgeSpot provides THE starting point for any innovative technological solution addressing ageing populations. It enables efficient targeting of the silver economy and offers precise demographic data on WHERE and HOW MANY age specific classes currently live and will likely live in the FUTURE. With AgeSpot a new Earth Observation (EO) supported business intelligence service is offered.

agriloc targets significant improvements in agriculture through automation supported by satellites. For this purpose, a thorough market analysis and numerous user surveys have been carried out to identify current problems and needs of farmers. Projected agriloc systems and services have been validated through requirements definition, design, and field demonstrations in various user workshops and public forums at agricultural fairs. The solutions are aimed at supporting farming processes through integration of highly accurate Guidance, Navigation, and Control, with reliable connectivity utilising telecommunication satellites, and supported by new test systems and services to support farmers in their purchasing decisions.
