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.
Seco
Status date: 08 February 2021
SECO is a novel system that integrates three EO services and five EO technologies with the sole purpose to prevent and detect water leaks. The services are delivered directly to customers systems via an API and/or a web platform. SECO integrates satellite optical and radar datasets delivering a short to long-term intelligent alert system for water leaks prevention and detection.
Aquax
Status date: 03 February 2021
AQUAX is an integrated system of robots, satellites and artificial intelligence, intended for monitoring and identifying anomalous discharges within lakes, rivers and reservoirs.
Collie AI
Status date: 02 February 2021
Route optimization software is abundantly present in logistics. However, none of the available solutions has a global scope of application, they are limited to a single transport mode: ship, train, truck, or airplane. Though extremely useful, there is an essential missing piece of information: the concatenation between transport modes.
Earth Rover
Status date: 02 February 2021
Earth Rover is developing integrated crop scouting and laser weeding. We are targeting the high value vegetable market, and are currently testing commercial prototypes of tractor-mounted crop scouting with UK’s largest organic brassica farmer.
SoURCE
Status date: 02 February 2021
SoURCE - the concept of the service is to fulfill growing demand in the real estate market for having information concerning utility infrastructures which are provided in real time, updated and with high accuracy, via a user-friendly mobile application. The service combines different technologies (EGNSS, Earth Observation, Augmented Reality, Computer Vision) to enable simplification of gathering and proper interpretation of dispersed information about utilities in real time at current user location.
OPTIPORT
Status date: 28 January 2021
A significant contributor to the global GHG emission is the “hurry-and-wait” behaviour in tramp shipping. OPTIPORT is a Just-in-Time Arrival service that calculates optimal port arrival times for vessels currently underway by leveraging data from Sat-AIS and geospatial analytics.
This problem is tackled by combining the capabilities of StormGeo (weather forecasting, fleet performance and vessel routing) and Oceanbolt (port congestion, commodity trade flows and AIS data processing).
EDGE
Status date: 27 January 2021
The Nexlys’ advancED farminG intElligence(EDGE) aims to take the interaction between the farmers and their plantation fields to a new level. It will deliver an Artificial Intelligence(AI) based Decision Support System(DSS), enabled by the usage of space assets, which will allow farmers to maximise the benefit of existing operational assets and know how.
OWASIS-NL
Status date: 27 January 2021
The lack of proper information on water availability is one of the most challenging obstacles for water management practices. To fight this challenge, OWASIS-NL uses space assets in two innovative water availability services that support effective water resource management in the Netherlands and South Africa.
Quantified Farm
Status date: 26 January 2021
Quantified Farm uses the latest advancements in satellite image processing, modern ground sensors, 5G sensor networks, and artificial intelligence to deliver quantified farm information on a direct instance. This approach allows to make better and directly operational information products that help farmers in three targeted key applications: precise irrigation, fertilisation, and crop protection.
POREWIT
Status date: 26 January 2021
POREWIT is satellite-based services aiming to support the monitoring of forestry activities and supply chains, the detection of non-compliant behaviours and the implementation of law enforcement operations (investigation & evidence) in relation to forestry law.
GEWS
Status date: 26 January 2021
Greenhouse owners are in a very competitive market, in which unexpected costs due to damage and decay of the greenhouse assets can cause severe problems. This demonstration project aims at demonstrating how a notification service using space data can help greenhouse owners to prevent or mitigate non-insurable risks threatening their business, and thereby save costs.
ReMedy DEMO Project
Status date: 22 January 2021
A Thousand miles out at a sea. You are the captain on a large container ship. A crew member is seriously ill. You have been trained for this and it is your call. Remote medical care is complicated due to the distance between parties.
Telemedicine currently focuses on analysis / consultation. MedAssist.online’ s Two- way Augmented Reality service adds the “DO-factor”, by bringing a remote doctor virtually alongside a caretaker, working jointly to deliver the best possible care at lowest cost.
miBeez
Status date: 21 January 2021
Development and demonstration of a Integrated Precision Apiculture System including management, monitoring and decision support modules. Development of monitoring devices for installation in beehives and development of management software platform (desktop and mobile app) for use by beekeepers.
SatPDT
Status date: 15 January 2021
The pioneering daylight Photodynamic Therapy digital solution for Actinic Keratosis, using satellites for saving lives from skin cancer.
Floodly AI
Status date: 15 January 2021
Detection of subsurface water using satellites and AI, for the purpose locating new sources of drinking water and pipe leaks.
COLD-ML
Status date: 15 January 2021
The COLD-ML project has implemented one of the first approaches for the development of a fully automated, AI-based application for detecting the retreat of outlet glaciers on a global scale using EO. The project is an important step forward for timely and near-real time data provision on Greenland cryosphere changes, one of the most visible global indicators of climate change.
Cityfier
Status date: 14 January 2021
Cityfier is a digital service to analyse and forecast the value of a city district or a single property. Cityfier combines GIS data, earth observation data and Urban Master Plans in order to evaluate and forecast the value of residential real estates.
ARCAmarine
Status date: 11 January 2021
The goal of the study is to develop an end-to-end solution mitigating cyber risks related to maritime communications via satellites. In particular navigation data are critical to improve the safety of maritime traffic and the reliability of downstream services.
