Keep an eye in orbit

Data from Satellite images provide information for agricultural and forestry practices and for helping manage food security. Satellite images are used to determine various plant indices such as leaf area chlorophyll and water content indexes. This is particularly important for effective yield prediction and applications related to Earth’s vegetation. It also provides information on pollution in lakes and coastal waters. Images of floods, volcanic eruptions and landslides contribute to disaster mapping and humanitarian relief efforts.

Climate change impact on ocean life and sudden blue-green algal growth can be monitored by Remote Sensing Data. Blue-green algae can pose a serious threat to water quality, ecosystem stability, surface drinking water supplies, and public health through toxin production. Continuous monitoring by In Situ Sensors’ Data is key to early detection of harmful algal blooms.

Information collected by on site sensors detail remote sensing data for any survey or monitoring need. On a given ecosystem, such as a city, it is also used to manage assets and resources efficiently. This includes data collected from citizens, devices and assets that is processed and analyzed to monitor and manage air quality, traffic and transportation systems, power plants, water quality and supply, waste management and other community services.
