2 My plan KSAT who we are and what you as an analyst can or cannot do based on commercial satellite imagery? About KSAT facilities and possibilities Near real-time input / data to the decision maker A lot of sensors with daily global coverage Examples I want you to leave with these questions? How can I use commercial satellite imagery in my advanced GIS-analysis and decision support - making? How can I be the most successful analyst? / 3 / 28-Dec-12

22 KSAT Oil-spill service Early-warning Exact position and estimated size Based on satellite images Covers large areas Sees through darkness and clouds Source identification with AIS Provided daily for coastal EU states Available globally / 24 / 28-Dec-12

23 Oilspill detection and Identification of polluter Combining satellite images with AIS - a powerful combination Oil spill outside the Norwegian coast, ships in the area. Warning with excact position, size and confidence level is given. Combined with AIS, tracked back, one of the ship lanes closely corresponds with the potensial spill. The vessel can easily be identified, and authorities can decide on further action. / 25 / 28-Dec-12

40 To conclude KSAT can provide unbiased and vendor-neutral data / intelligence KSAT are 100% focussed on near Real-Time based on our global ground network, processing capabilities and 24/7 operations KSAT has > 20 years experience in delievering fully integrated services (intelligence) to end-users BUT.. light-weight analysis Heavy-duty analysis is your baby, remember my questions: How can I use commercial satellite imagery in my advanced GIS-analysis and decision support - making? How can I be the most successful analyst? The tools and data are out there - start using them! / 42 / 28-Dec-12
