The Government of Northwest Territories (“GNWT”) declared a State of Emergency as a result of the extent and evolution of...

Earth-observing satellites like Landsat have documented the shrinking of chimpanzee habitat, Africa's equatorial forest belt. The Jane Goodall Institute uses Landsat and other satellite data to empower local communities to drive conservation on their own land by creating habitat suitability maps for chimpanzees.

Mobile apps also bring in data in real-time so communities can protect their village forest reserves, and create land use plans for watersheds, people, and chimpanzees. After years of forest loss, the last few decades have seen habitats recovering.

Détecter les zones d’accumulation des déchets plastique le long des côtes, notamment après des épisodes de très fortes pluies, est important si l’on souhaite pouvoir les collecter avant qu’il

Quelques heures seulement après les premières secousses de magnitude 7,8 enregistrées à la frontière turco-syrienne, dans la nuit de dimanche 5 à lundi 6, les ingénieurs du Service régional de traitement d'image et de télédétection (Sertit) à Strasbourg, composante du Laboratoire des sciences de l'ingénieur, de l'informatique et de l'imagerie (ICube, Unistra/CNRS/Engees/Insa) se sont attelés à cartographier les dégâts. Enjeu : doter les autorités d'outils précis, pour guider la décision et orienter les secours, alors que le bilan humain ne cesse de s'alourdir.

L'UE a pris du retard face à SpaceX dans le domaine spatial. Elle doit investir dans des projets ambitieux comme Iris2.

Explore how Quant Data & Analytics achieved a 97% match rate in building detection using Satellogic's affordable and precise 70cm satellite imagery.

In a groundbreaking development, researchers from the University of Leeds have unveiled a neural network that can swiftly and accurately chart the expanse of large Antarctic icebergs in satellite images, accomplishing the task in a mere 0.01 seconds. This novel approach is in stark contrast to the laborious and time-consuming manual efforts needed previously.

I’m very proud to be featured by Tim Fowler in his presentation at BSIDES St. Louis 2023 hacking education conference. Tim Fowler is an offensive security analyst at Black Hills Information Security. Tim mentionned my work about the Viasat attack analysis: I compared the 4 frameworks that can be used for the space sector: MITRE ATT&CK, SPARTA, SPACE-SHIELD and TREKS. […]

With a multitude of opportunities for start-ups, established companies and investors, commercial Earth observation is a vibrant sector with fast-moving innovations in technology, datasets and downstream applications. ESA is a key driving force for the development of European Earth observation and provides impetus through its many programmes and initiatives.To set the scene ahead of ESA’s Earth Observation Commercialisation Forum next week, here is some need-to-know background information on the evolution and state of play of the Earth observation industry.

The Elon Musk-led company is set to blast as many as four of Europe’s flagship Galileo satellites into orbit next year amid delays for rival local rockets.
