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.
OGOR Yield
Status date: 19 October 2023
Yield forecast report for 3 major crops (maize, winter wheat, and rapeseed) starting from 2 months before harvest. The forecast is available at the field & farm level and updated every two weeks.
OGOR YIELD
Status date: 21 September 2021
OGOR YIELD estimates the maize yield at different levels: field, farm, county, region, country, for all agricultural seasons, starting with 2017.Knowing the yield at field level allows to decrease input costs, to optimize logistic and storage costs and ultimately to increase farmers profit.
NGMP
Status date: 15 October 2023
To achieve better efficiency and reliability in monitoring the operation of an agricultural farm, we decided to utilize the potential of combining benefits of IoT sensors together with data from Earth observation. We propose collecting reliable basic data like soil moisture, temperature, humidity and nutrient levels using sensor inputs as well as Earth observation indexes. Our platform handles collection of data, combining them and It’s processing in cloud environment also, all with mobile access and management. We focus on providing effective and reliable monitoring, reporting and alarming, incl. growth status and environmental factors for mandatory public disclosure.
O-BOY
Status date: 15 October 2023
O-BOY is the first wrist-wearable that contains a satellite transmitter - therefore operates outside the range of mobile phones - and will offer a total package of services that can be lifesaving for athletes and adventurers in remote areas.
SoilEO
Status date: 15 October 2023
SoilEO – Remote Soil Analysis. Generate fertility maps of your fields with a remote soil analysis.
The demonstration project is to validate and demonstrate the technology on real-life fields in real-life conditions in different countries. By using Remote Sensing and Hyperspectral spaceborne images processing one gets a visual and digital map of macronutrients: Mg, P2O5, K2O, Ca, Soil Organic Carbon and pH.
MTrader
Status date: 16 August 2023
Awake.AI’s marine Marketplace with the power of AI for trading port services and products.
MWS-A
Status date: 11 September 2023
MWS-A is a new weather nowcasting service for airports with high spatial and temporal resolution. The service combines real-time positions and predicted trajectory data of aircraft, and high resolution nowcasts of the motion and evolution of observed severe weather phenomena. Using these data the MWS-A service engine derives predictions of upcoming encounters of the weather phenomena and aircraft within up to 40 minutes time window in the future.
SMOCGEO
Status date: 15 February 2022
SMOCGEO is enabling a transparent assessment of the sustainability of global commodities supply chains, using geospatial analytics. The project fuses satellite data, geospatial data and machine learning techniques to transform complex climate data into meaningful outcomes for enterprise corporates and financial institutions.
EDGE-AI
Status date: 30 September 2023
Revolutionizing critical infrastructure protection and biomass monitoring with AI-powered drones. Leveraging cutting-edge technology to redefine security and efficiency in the energy sector. Welcome to the future of real-time surveillance and monitoring solutions.
GEMS
Status date: 30 September 2023
The GEMS service uses space-based technology to detect and monitor air pollutants, including hotspots, using Copernicus EO data and algorithms. The service, designed for commercialization, aims to automate data processing, making emission control cost-effective and bridging the digital data access gap, a groundbreaking in emission monitoring.
Sat4Insur
Status date: 30 September 2023
The Sat4Insur project aims at delivering a new monitoring service for crop insurance companies. It offers a complete decision tool to the Head of Agriculture of the insurance company and to adjusters to better evaluate crop yield and the financial impact of adverse weather events (i.e., extreme and recurring) such as drought, excess water and storm.
FWM
Status date: 27 September 2023
Currently, surveys of floating weeds are carried out from boats or helicopters. The service supplies weekly maps and metrics of free-floating weeds using a combination of radar and optical images from ESA Sentinel satellites. Floating Weed Manager is a web service that offers customers across the globe a range of products supporting enhanced weed management programmes.
CRUISE
Status date: 19 September 2023
CRUISE intents is to design, develop and validate a CyberSec Test Range for UAS/RPAS. This technological framework combining ICT, EO and SATCOM, will be located in the Grottaglie Airport (Italy), a facility that experiments RPAS and studies the integration of UAS in non-segregated airspace. It will offer the overall assessment of vulnerability and resilience of UAS with respect to cyber-attacks.
GIP4 Smart Airports
Status date: 19 September 2023
Fourteen million flights are expected in 2035 in Europe. To increase airport capacity and efficiency, optimisation at every step must be carried on. GIP4SmartAirports projects aims at minimizing rotation time and smoothing real-time operations. Space technologies can be a valuable asset to support surveillance and safety, and help airport manager to maintain high quality and complete knowledge of their assets.
EFFORS
Status date: 18 September 2023
A real-time flood forecasting system has been developed and is operated at the computational centre of the Austrian national weather service GeoSphere Austria.
EFFORS brings together experts in the field of meteorology, hydrology, hydrodynamics and satellite communication. Within a coherent modelling chain, the EFFORS system couples the individual numerical models and provides relevant data about flood evolution on short time scales.
