Status date: 14 March 2022
Enhancing Belmap, GIMs’ geo digital twin of the built-up environment, through Artificial Intelligence techniques applied on earth observation data. Resulting in four new Belmap data modules: Greenfields, Building Age, Roofs and Gardens.
Track & Trust KS
Status date: 20 December 2019
Datarella’s Track & Trust product seeks to boost transparency between stakeholders and offer immutable trusted tracking for stakeholders in humanitarian supply chains. Track & Trust architecture leverages advanced blockchain technology and satellite connected IoT devices to guarantee that goods are continually accounted for even in the most exigent and adversarial conditions.
KSAT DECOM
Status date: 28 February 2022
KSAT DECOM aims to help operators and regulators to monitor offshore decommissioning activities by combining oil spill detection, vessel monitoring, multi-mission SAR and EO data, weather condition and greenhouse emissions to reduce costs, increase efficiency of operations, develop safer methods for execution and reduce environmental impacts during decommissioning.
PLESS
Status date: 28 February 2022
Marine pollution in the form of plastics is a devastating problem that not only affects the whole planet ecosystem, but also represents a great socio-economic impact on human activities
It is considering this ever increasing problem that there is an urge for new conceptual and technological solutions that can help to detect, monitor and mitigate the consequences of marine plastics pollution and, ultimately, contribute for the establishment of adequate policies that can contribute for its mitigation.
CLASS@CROSS
Status date: 23 February 2022
The Class@cross project has developed a Satcom based solution aiming at offering an Education Outreach platform accessible from any ICT device in order to enrich the educational opportunities with special regard to the social factors and cultural and scientific contents.
XplorIT for Recovery
Status date: 21 February 2022
Due to the pandemic, Data Duopoly have pivoted to utilise their existing technology to help the recovery post-Covid. They can help aid social distancing on site by utilising satellite data and location data and this demonstration project will allow them to utilise this technology in 2-3 high profile venues and optimise this market opportunity before scaling to more venues.
DRIPIN
Status date: 17 February 2022
Ground movements are an important driver for water pipe failure. This project aims to integrate radar satellite based InSAR data into water utility strategic modelling and operational workflows to improve decision-making and reduce pipe failure and associated costs.
MELODY JUNIOR
Status date: 15 February 2022
MELODY is a robotic telemedicine tool, which allows a medical expert to remotely perform an ultrasound exam on a distant patient. It offers access to diagnostic capabilities for remote populations requiring ultrasonography. While it has proven to be effective on adults already, MELODY is however not approved yet for paediatric use. This activity aims therefore to develop and validate a solution allowing children to also benefit from remote ultrasound scan. This is of high interest during the COVID-19 crisis, as it will avoid travel to the rare paediatric centres while protecting medical experts from a direct exposure to the virus.
MOOD Decom
Status date: 14 February 2022
Feasibility study of digital services supporting decommissioning activities at sea through the provision of Earth Observation (EO)-enriched modelled MetOcean parameters relevant for operation planning and environmental impact monitoring.
SatNav E@syCare
Status date: 14 February 2022
SatNav E@syCare is an advanced service, with mobile Apps and a cloud-based application, for the remote monitoring of vital parameters and well-being information of chronic patients and people at risk by general practitioners, specialist doctors and nursing operators on the field. The service is operated according to personalized healthcare plan. SatNav E@syCare exploits GNSS technology to provide enhanced functionalities and location-based data analysis results.
atPACE
Status date: 14 February 2022
A project-centric, situational awareness portal aiding construction and decommissioning of offshore installations. Rich insights are engineered from Earth Observations, AIS, weather, sea state and various GIS data repositories and combined with in-situ surveys and sensor data. All information is dynamically shared amongst project stakeholders creating common understanding, transparency, and improved efficiency.
SpaceSense SOC
Status date: 14 February 2022
This Kick-Start Activity creates several satellite-based models that could be used to track Recommended Farming Practices (RFP) for carbon sequestration at a sub-field level (10m, based on Sentinel 1 & 2 data), and provide these information to companies creating Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) stock models. They will be focused on the three following detectors:
Cover Crop Flag: Is the field using cover crops between main crops?
Crop Rotation Diversity Indicator: How do the crops rotate in the field?
Tilling Flag: Is the field being tilled or not between crops?
SAT-DEFO FS
Status date: 26 November 2018
SAT-DEFO project purpose is to build an app with data-proven, valid, both historical and current information about ground deformations for the inhabitants of the areas who are exposed to such changes (especially in the localizations threatened by ground subsidence caused by mining activity).
SISMA2
Status date: 03 February 2022
The objective of the SISMA2 demonstration project was to implement cost-effective space-based tools and demonstrate the value of our smart-herding solution to monitor herd activities (large terrestrial animals raised outdoors, domestic, and wild) and their vulnerability factors, to modernize the herding industry and increase the plasticity of adaptation of reindeer husbandry to climatic changes in the environment and to the evolution of regional contexts.
