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.
STAY
Status date: 10 November 2020
STAY: is a mobile interactive experience that rewards young people for acting positively during COVID-19 or a similar public health crisis.The platform incorporates live data feeds, Augmented Reality and geo-location into unique learning experiences that give young people the opportunity to earn pieces of digital merchandise in return for their efforts.
InsureApp Service
Status date: 10 November 2020
The objective of this project is to demonstrate a web-based Water Control Room which improves the efficiency of insurance claim management and water management before, during and after weather-related hazards. The key service offered is the Flood and Rain Report Generator which automatically generates reports for specific flood or rainfall events based on information from satellites, radars, gauges and crowdsourcing
HERMES
Status date: 09 November 2020
To provide end users, i.e. Hospital Organizations, Medical Screening and First Aid Units, with an efficient services ecosystem for the monitoring, management and prevention of Medical Emergency from pandemic such as COVID-19.
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.
SmartSatCare
Status date: 06 November 2020
SmartSatCare is a 12-months project whose goal is to promote the use of TV-based remote assistance services for medical monitoring. This project will extend the services of a previous project [TV-AssistDem], integrates the whole system with satellite technologies and tests it on a real territory. The goal is to enhance the teleassistance in different geographical areas, including those patients in remote regions.
Careview
Status date: 05 November 2020
Careview is a web-app that uses GNSS positioning to improve the accuracy of outreach and door-knocking to identify socially isolated residents in a city, helping councils save money. This satellite technology is vital to improve the statistical chances of finding socially isolated residents. Careview was the only non-clinical solution to win an NHS Innovation Award in 2017. As a result of the ESA co-funded Demonstration Project, Careview has now been deployed in Leeds and Bury in Greater Manchester.
CO.DE-19
Status date: 02 November 2020
CO.DE-19 is a system for contactless delivery services based on an autonomous driving drone which allows the pick-up, transport and delivery of small packages with zero emission impact on the environment and without any human involvement needed.CO.DE-19 is able to move indoor and outdoor in full autonomy, to recognize and avoid obstacles thanks to satellite navigation, cameras and up-to-date sensors.
GREy (former BFPaaS)
Status date: 02 November 2020
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.
S.T.E.L.L.E.
Status date: 27 October 2020
S.T.E.L.L.E. will give rise to SCUOLAB – SDA (Satellite Data Augmented), an educational platform with interactive and experiential contents produced from satellite Earth Observation data and based on issues of global importance such as climate change, melting glaciers, rising sea temperatures in order to give the teachers support with innovative resources to conduct both in-person and remote education experiences.
CTV2
Status date: 26 October 2020
CliniTouch Vie 2 is a satellite air quality enabled, digitally connected health care platform that provides remote monitoring, tailored clinical interventions and education to patients with chronic conditions to significantly improve health outcomes.
