How satellite images and imagery services can be used? 

The intended use of the imagery was to monitor activity on properties such as structure, roads and vegetation cover to protect public benefit conservation values. In addition to this, the imagery was used to enhance the ability to enforce the conservation easement, especially on...

Having used satellite imagery for the last 20 years, Jimmy Wilson, a forester from Scotland, wanted to explore how Geocento could assist him with his most recent project - mapping a former opencast mine over a densely forested area in Scotland...

Our client, a fisheries resource manager, collected some sample imagery from Planet’s constellation, to check whether the herring spawn could be seen from space. Having obtained promising results, our client then subscribed to access over the spawning period up to the end of March, using EarthImages service...

Ship detection is a vital aspect of maritime surveillance as it allows the monitoring of maritime traffic, illegal fishing and sea border activities. This is typically done through the use of AIS...

The African Wildlife Foundation uses the Geocento’s EarthImages platform and imagery services to access high-resolution data for land use assessment in relation to the viability of critical wildlife corridors...

As a partner of the Satellite Applications Catapult led EASOS project Geocento was involved in forest protection initiatives in Malaysia where illegal logging is known to take place. Daily imagery coverage is able to provide evidence of activity well within the interior of the forest, while monitoring...

With the rise of high resolution satellites, it is becoming increasingly possible to use remote sensing in the field of conservation. High resolution imagery can be used to track deforestation, habitat change, illegal activities, and wildlife population change...

Radar satellite imagery is the best suite for icebergs detection no matter what the weather conditions (or conditions of daylight) are. The images are acquired to optimize overall sampling of the area in terms of coverage and also spatial resolution. The maximum speed of the icebergs can be used to assess...

Optical satellite sensors can detect visible and near-infrared wavelengths of light, reflected from agricultural land below. Using EarthImages application developed by Geocento, agronomists and other agricultural specialists have the opportunity to obtain regular acquisitions of imagery to monitor their crops as they grow...

ESA-funded project to develop an earth observation discovery and broker application for oil and gas. The project’s consortium consisted of the leading geospatial companies including Geocento, Kongsberg Satellite Services, Satellite Applications Catapult...
