GNSS driven EO and Verifiable Image and Sensor Integration for mission-critical Operational Networks

Two markets are considered in the project:

• Humanitarian: Disaster response (United Nations) and emergency management (civil protection).
• Financial: Damage documentation for cost claims in smaller (Insurance) and larger (World Bank) Scale.

A novel business element is the connection of the two, as if private financial users (insurance) get access to relevant crisis data early, they are able to consider if a rapid reaction from their side might fund a response that both saves lives and values.

Objectives

The main objective of the GEO VISION project is to provide users with required situational awareness through the development of the interactive mission-critical visual communications software solution. This will be realized by seamlessly and reliably integrating geo-referenced visual and related sensor in-situ data with maps and geo-spatial space information in a timely, seamlessly integrated, secure and user-friendly way. This approach will be used for managing operational phases of situations like disasters and emergencies, as well as rapid damage assessments and a basis for insurance and cost estimate, while building on current initiatives, proven concepts and realistic user requirements from experienced field assessment officials.
