Our team joins others from the French space sectors to form a consortium that has been chosen by the Directorate General of Enterprises (DGE) and Centre National d’Études Spatiales for the DOMINO-X project.
We are proud and happy to contribute to this innovative initiative that will exploit Cloud and Artificial Intelligence technologies to standardize the architectures of ground-based Earth Observation segments and promote the emergence of a modular product and service offering. This will facilitate a need to offer customers lower costs for their requests.
Airbus Defence and Space are leading the DOMINO-X consortium that brings together other experts from: Airbus, Thales Alenia Space, Safran, CS Group, Orange and Capgemini, Gisaïa, Stack Labs, Human design Group, Geotrend and Leanspace.
Gisaïa will be fronting our solution, ARLAS for geospatial data analytics . This is not the first time that Gisaïa joins some of the consortium members and offers solutions that simplify the access to Earth Observation products. ARLAS is part of the framework that Theia and Dinamis are built on.
ARLAS is open source architecture software that is also built on the latest big data technologies making it both easily interoperable with other solutions. It scales easily with a growing archive . This is important in the DOMINO-X mission which seeks to explore volumes of Earth Observation data, from diverse product families. But that is not all, ARLAS will also be offering interactive visualisation of the data with a simplified filtering process that makes it easy to quickly sort through data and find what one is looking for.
The DOMINO-X ultimate quest is to deliver valuable insights for decision making from Earth Observation data by making it accessible to as many users as possible.
Gisaïa brings seven years of geo-big data analytics expertise, and a robust geo-analytics solution, “ARLASⓇ”. The ARLASⓇ framework has been tried and tested in diverse use cases for geospatial intelligence, especially in Earth observation data optimisation.
FAIR WINS UFO 2021 Challenge
EUROPE UNION Horizon 2020 UFO Challenge
06 July 2021, Media Release
FAIR Consortium,
Media brief, 06 July 2021
Gisaïa, Skyline Partners, e-Odyn are excited to announce that their consortium won a grant by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme coordinated by Aerospace Valley. The award was through a tendering process that saw the consortium emerge with top scores for their proposal responding to “Emerging indUstries new value chains boosted by small Flying Objects – UFO”
The UFO project seeks to develop cross-sectoral industrial value-chains between selected emerging industries, to stimulate new products and services from small and medium enterprises.
Mr Thaddé Bouchard, the UFO Coordinator at Aerospace Valley shares what got FAIR on the winning list.
“Based on a high quality application, the project FAIR presents for UFO a great opportunity to combine new market opportunities with climate change tackling. The parametric products proposed by FAIR, leveraging on advanced scientific and insurance models, represent a highly innovative approach for ship insurance. FAIR proposes a promising solution in contrast with traditional practices of the insurance industry in the marine sector demonstrating how satellite data can foster the value chains of emerging industries.”
The award will allow the consortium to bring together their aggregated technologies to develop and test a parametric index insurance product for the marine sector. Mr Bouchard notes that FAIR put together the right actors to successfully execute the project.
The grant runs between May 2021 – May 2022. After the one year development period, the consortium aims to put a fully transparent risk transfer product that protects ship owners while also benefiting the environment . This will be achieved through full automatiomation of risk calculations based on Earth observation data to cover overlooked aspects of operations.
The consortium, which is made up of marine data specialists, geo-big data analytics experts and parametrics insurance specialists, believes that this project will open up a new revenue stream for Small Flying Objects (SFOs), in high value marine insurance .
eOdyn’s solutions rely on its Omni-Situ ocean dynamics (wind, wave, surface current) measurement technology. It delivers high temporal and spatial resolution, in real-time with virtually global offshore coverage, thanks to machine learning algorithms mining into marine traffic data.
Gisaïa brings seven years of geo-big data analytics expertise, and a robust geo-analytics solution, “ARLASⓇ”. The ARLASⓇ framework has been tried and tested in diverse use cases for geospatial intelligence, especially in Earth observation data value creation. The ARLASⓇ framework already powers INSDEXⓇ, an index insurance technology platform produced and run by Skyline Partners.
Skyline Partneris a UK Insurtech company, specialised in index-based parametric insurance. Our solutions are data & technology-driven and underwritten by top tier international re/insurers with superior ratings. Skyline has developed its own index insurance technology platform INSDEX® and aggregates high-value data from multiple sources.
