GNSS and Earth Observation provide valuable data to the energy and raw materials sectors – data that helps guide everything from site selection to planning and monitoring construction projects. When a site or mine becomes operational, Copernicus data is used to monitor its operational life and environmental impact. Galileo’s timing data can synchronise energy networks and smart grids, while mining operations depend on its precise positioning information to safely move machinery and heavy equipment.
