Orbital Eye joined GESIP meeting in Paris

Today, Ana Stavreva and Arnaud van den Berg visited Paris to give a presentation about Orbital Eye and CoSMiC-EYE at the Gesip, the organization that sets the industry standards for transport pipeline operators. It was great to see many French pipeline operators join the meeting and to discuss with them how CoSMiC-EYE could add value […]

Terravisie Project – Detection of malpractises and environmental crime

Did you know that Orbital Eye’s core technology, to detect relevant activities in SAR satellite data, has many more impactful applications than just pipeline monitoring? One example is the Earth Observation (EO) based monitoring solution Terravisie, which is aimed at monitoring large scale earthworks at a national scale to detect malpractises and environmental crime. Orbital […]

Working on MIT project with our partner Ellipsis Drive

Yesterday we visited our partner Ellipsis Drive in their offices in Ede to work together on the final stages of our MIT cooperation grant funded by the Provincie Zuid-Holland. In this project, our expertise on applying machine learning to satellite data for monitoring solutions is combined with Ellipsis’ expertise on efficient infrastructure solutions for storing […]

Orbital Eye visited Enagas in Spain

Yesterday, Elizabeth Antonopoulou, Ana Stavreva and Arnaud van den Berg visited Enagรกs at its headquarters in Madrid, where they discussed the current, and future partnership, between Enagas and Orbital Eye. We were happy to finally meet our Enagรกs contacts, Ignacio de Cea Sarabia and Carlos Gรณmez Campo in person and enjoy some tapas y cervezas […]

10-year anniversary celebration in France!

Last weekend, we all went together on a trip to northern France to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Orbital Eye with the team. We strengthened the bond between each other while learning a lot about French history. Three days full of emotions and unforgettable memories like indoor skydiving, a city tour in Lille, tasting French […]

Benefits of Satellite Based Pipeline Monitoring #8 Sustainability

The main reason for pipeline operators to monitor their pipeline network for Third Party Interferences is because they want to prevent incidents that could hinder product delivery, cause environmental damages, or pose a threat to nearby communities. However, if aerial inspections are used to monitor this network, communities are still disturbed by noise, polluting CO2 […]

Striking the satellite balance

Grounded in years of research, CoSMiC-EYE is one of the most cost effective satellite monitoring solutions. The key is an intelligent use of open and commercial data. Open data sources scan the pipeline network at a high temporal frequency. More expensive commercial satellites are only tasked at locations where our AI algorithms flag activities based […]

But what happens when the network increases in size? Or when the monitoring frequency has to be increased to maintain a safety level under the trend of increasing groundworks for the energy transition? An additional helicopter flight is […]
