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.
ESA FGC
Status date: 10 March 2021
We applied space imagery to automate the identification of football fields with artificial turf material to an extent and frequency not possible with land-based tools. Pooling information enables the generation of information about football fields. Other information may be added for a tailored value proposition to field owners, field manufacturers and for field maintenance.
DAPPO
Status date: 09 March 2021
An AI & EO-based service that improves management of tuber supply to potato processing industry and potato storage facilities.
CertiPro
Status date: 08 March 2021
In this truly European project, an innovative railway track worker protection system will be evaluated for its reliability and its ability to enhance the safety of railway track workers. The goal is to demonstrate the safety capabilities of the track worker protection system in a real environment, integrated into the challenging infrastructure of a railway operator in Italy.
SATWORK
Status date: 08 March 2021
SATWORK is a tool able to monitor the health status of workers in a company and to mitigate health risks at work, such as for Coronavirus. At the same time, this tool can help companies to define a new internal “welfare”, compliant to a reasonable social distancing mood and to the privacy needs of workers, which will be different based on their age and pre-existing health conditions, as well as based on the nature of their job.
SatCare
Status date: 04 March 2021
SatCare aimed to demonstrate two service concepts of remote diagnostics using a broadband managed communication system to include satcom. SatCare allows for video rich data to transmit scans to an hospital from a vehicle on the scene of the emergency and en-route to the hospital. Enabling a robust clinical decision support system for prehospital patients has an impact on the health outcomes for patients and can improve the productivity and efficiency of the ambulance service. Through the addition of Satcom we can broaden the coverage of this service to include areas where terrestrial broadband communication (LTE) is unavailable or over-subscribed.
EBX4EDU
Status date: 03 March 2021
For individuals and educational institutions, Earth Blox makes access to satellite data easy by removing the barriers to access and understanding. Earth Blox quickly empowers students to go from sensing to sense-making, whether they are in a lab or at home.
DeFROST for Hydropower
Status date: 01 March 2021
Based on satellite data, DeFROST delivers the ultimate snow monitoring solution for Energy (hydropower) industry. With DeFROST, such actors can improve current water inflow seasonal forecast by ingesting snow data, as well as, diagnosing early snow melt events for hydropower energy generation optimization
GEO
Status date: 26 February 2021
The MIS Global Events Observer (GEO) applies accurate, real time intelligence of space-based and ground sensor data to teams working across the insurance cycle. GEO offers unique opportunities for businesses to make informed decisions when selecting, pricing, monitoring, mitigating and assessing risks, and seeks to drive technology into traditional workflows to enhance policyholder service and deliver cost savings and time efficiencies.
CubeHAPS
Status date: 25 February 2021
A constellation of mini HAPS that provides a low-latency and low-cost telecommunication service over areas not covered by terrestrial infrastructures.
Liveland CCN
Status date: 25 February 2021
The scope of the Liveland CCN has been to further develop and refine the GMV NSL STICK service previously developed under the Liveland Demonstration project in order to improve its commercial viability.This included the overhaul of the STICK architecture to function in stand-alone, the improvement of the service accessibility to the clients and the enhancement of the STICK firmware functionalities making the service further appealing.
