DMCii to Supply Satellite Imagery to ScanEx

  19/10/2011
DMC International Imaging (DMCii, UK) has entered into a three-year agreement with Russia's ScanEx Research and Development Center to provide rapid 22m data reception from the UK-DMC2 satellite to ScanEx ground stations in Russia and CIS countries.
 

ScanEx will employ a network of four ground stations strategically placed throughout the vast Russia and CIS territory to downlink data directly. This new rapid delivery system is particularly suited to agricultural planning and monitoring forest fires - an area of great concern to Russia following the devastating fires experienced around Moscow in July 2010.

 

The 650km swath width and enhanced imaging capacity of UK-DMC2 will enable ScanEx to image vast areas rapidly with 22m resolution. Its multi-spectral data includes a near infra-red band that is effective for detecting growing vegetation or heat. 

 

Under the agreement, all imagery acquired by ScanEx will be made available through the DMCii catalogue, building significant Russia and CIS coverage for less time-sensitive applications.

Using Total Stations for Indoor Radiation Mapping

 

A total station can be used for many applications. Oak Ridge Associated Universities (USA) uses a total station for indoor radiation characterisation, which enables the team to better perform environmental assessments. This video shows how it is done.
