14:30 Unbiased Multi-mission Provider of Commercial Satellite Data in Time-Critical Operations

Attend this session from a pioneer and a world leader in oil spill detection and monitoring using satellite remote sensing data to learn more about the benefits of near-real time access to satellite imagery. During this briefing you will identify how breakthroughs in technology are enabling greater detection and prevention of environmental risks. Sigmund will explain:

● How commercial satellite imagery is being used for decision support and crisis management by commercial companies and governmental agencies
● How KSAT are using commercial satellite data for providing daily services to different actors, including environmental, oil spill, illegal fishing, ice navigation, crisis management, relief and military operations
● Why ice navigation and ice management are increasingly important due to the melting of the polar icecap, and the increased focus on the arctic. Oil exploration, shipping and tourism are all heavily dependent on updated information about ice conditions and ice flows in order to conduct operations in the arctic.
● How KSATs role as an independent satellite imagery provider with an unrivaled global ground network makes it possible to serve users all over the world with timely and updated information and intelligence
