Remote sensing services play an important, and frequently critical, role in the supply of thematic spatial information. GEOkomm networks is in a position to offer all relevant service components and applications, giving users the convenience of dealing with a single partner.
From the acquisition of aerial image and satellite data through analytical derivations of thematic information on a variety of topics and photogrammetric applications to further processing and implementation in spatial data infrastructures, remote sensing forms the bedrock of application-oriented
spatial information.
GEOkomm networks markets remote sensing products and services of outstanding significance:
- Starting in 2010, the National Research Centre for Geosciences (GFZ) in Potsdam will operate the first hyperspectral satellite. An airborne hyperspectral
scanner for a host of pragmatic applications is already available today.
- BSF Luftbild is one of Germany's leading companies when it comes to
acquiring aircraft based geodata. One of the first new-generation digital cameras - a Vexel UltraCam - has been in action since 2005.
- Automatic derivation of thematic spatial information from remote sensing
data improves the efficiency of evaluation processes. LuP, one of the network
partners, is the first company to develop technologies that automate
the acquisition of geoinformation from satellite data with a precision of a few
ground decimetres.
- Almost any commercially available satellite data can be procured quickly
and unbureaucratically through other network members.
Thanks to transparent, product-oriented and integrated processes, GEOkomm networks delivers affordable geoinformation that is absolutely accurate and rapidly available.
