Earth Observation Solutions

Satellite data helps us address important issues such as climate research. But it can also be used for commercial applications: We can help you solve your challenges using satellite data.

UNLOCKING THE POWER OF
SATELLITE-BASED DATA

Find out how we can help you solve your challenges using satellite data.

City Climate

Understanding Climate Change and Urban Heat Island Effects and Taking Action

Satellite data helps identify key climate indicators, such as urban heat islands, green spaces, forest cover, vegetation types, surface reflectivity (albedo), heat distribution, fire hazards, cold air currents, and much more. Furthermore, the use of satellite data in simulations (for example, of an urban area) makes it possible to evaluate past and future climate strategies and compare them.

Urban Heat Islands monitoring

Monitoring and analyzing temperature differences in cities using satellite data or ground-based sensors.

Urban Vegetation monitoring

Monitoring, analyzing, and assessing vegetation in urban areas using Earth observation data.

Thermal Insulation assessment

The analysis of the thermal insulation of surfaces, buildings, or natural landscapes using remote sensing technologies.

Infrastructure monitoring

Using satellite data to monitor and analyze the Earth's physical infrastructure.

By combining satellite data and on-board sensors, we enable precise monitoring and analysis of rail lines to detect changes along the tracks early on and minimize risks.

Analysis of Visibility Conditions at Railroad Crossings

Improving Safety at Passive Railroad Crossings Through Smart Monitoring

Rail temperature monitoring

Rail transportation will become increasingly important in the coming years as part of the transportation transition. Using satellite data, we offer various solutions to improve the reliability, safety, and efficiency of rail lines.

Coastal and Maritime Projects

Use of Earth observation for monitoring, analyzing, and protecting coastal and marine areas.

EO4Ports – The Port of the Future

Projects in which satellite data plays an important role:

SPRINT4EO is bringing disruptive technologies to Earth observation through short, streamlined research sprints coordinated by OHB-DS. The ESA project focuses on agile prototypes, evidence-based results, and a roadmap for scaling.

THEIA is an innovative project that uses advanced Earth observation technologies to enhance the Copernicus security services.

Study on potential EU Earth observation services for government use.

Advanced integrated system for detecting obstacles and track failures for the intelligent automation of rail transportation.

Copernicus Demonstrators – Consumer and Environment

Demonstration concepts in the following areas: fisheries and aquaculture, digital tourism and cultural heritage, insurance and finance, monitoring the health of forest vegetation, and green mining and energy.

Understanding climate change and urban heat island effects and taking action.

Space4LevelCrossing

Space-based innovative solutions for safety at railroad crossings.

Urban Green View

Using satellite data to bring more greenery to the city in the fight against climate change.

Copernicus Demonstrators - Mobility, Emergency and Infrastructures

Ein Projekt zur Analyse und Bewertung der technischen Machbarkeit und zur technischen Demonstration fünf unterschiedlichen Proofs of Concepts unter Verwendung von Copernicus-Daten und -Diensten.

Scalable agricultural sensor data for improved monitoring of agricultural environmental conditions.

OCEANIDS Coastal Resilience Platform

WebGIS platform for coastal resilience, including Earth observation data services for coastal monitoring, coastal flooding, land subsidence/elevation, and sea-level rise.

Space-based applications for traffic monitoring and management to address issues affecting the most important modes of land transportation—roads and rail—such as traffic congestion and the negative effects of extreme temperatures on railway infrastructure.

Supporting the green transition in the Baltic Sea region through the analysis of Copernicus Earth Observation data.

EO4Ports / EOTideLines

We evaluated the potential of Earth observation for optimizing port operations and developed a new Earth observation product for monitoring bathymetry in the tidal zone in near real time—the EOTideLines application.

Ports of the future are those that optimize their operations through the use of various advanced technologies to reduce their environmental and economic impact and improve safety and reliability.
