One colour 

and a wide spectrum of Earth monitoring solutions

APPLICATIONS

FORESTRY

  • Forest cover, species and health from lot to stem
  • Tree density
  • Change detection
  • Forest fuel monitoring
  • Use of medium, high resolution, lidar
Image

PRECISION FARMING

  • Growth monitoring by frequent revisit (bi-weekly)
  • Yield assessment, stress, water stress
  • Crop type identification
  • Evapotranspiration, soil texture
  • Use of medium to high resolution, UAVs, radar
Image

GEOLOGY

  • Continental to local scale formations
  • Bare mineral identification using multispectral and hyperspectral
  • Aquifer mapping using night time thermal infrared
  • Medium to fine topographical models and 3D vision
  • Automated terrain feature detection and mapping (linear features, slopes, convexity, etc.
Image

MINING

  • Open pit mine topography monitoring (medium and fine resolution)
  • Change detection (slopes and volume)
  • Tailing pond monitoring (content and concentration)
  • Environmental study (water, impact on surrounding vegetation and habitats)
  • Pseudo real-time activity monitoring (video mode)
Image

WATER RESOURCES

  • Water bodies delineation
  • Water quality
  • Bathhymetry
  • Oceanography
  • Water surface temperature, chlorophyl and sediment content in time series.
  • Flooding and disaster management
Image

OIL AND GAS

  • High resolution and thermal well monitoring (infrastructure and gases
  • Tailing ponds monitoring (content and temperature)
  • Open pit mine slopes and volume monitoring
  • Pipeline integrity thermal monitoring
  • Environmental monitoring (habitats, sensitive ecosystems)
  • Development monitoring (infrastructure, linear development)
Image

URBAN MANAGEMENT

  • Medium to highly detailed change detection
