Defence / Military / Security

Nowadays, national defence is no longer limited to the territory of individual countries but also has a strong focus on worldwide areas of conflicts and operations. The capability to assess worldwide situations and the capacity to act globally have become absolutely necessary for an increasing community of nations and coalitions. These requirements result in considerable demand for global geo-information.
All types of evaluation, strategic planning and military operations are at least partly based on geo-information which must be:

• reliable
• accessible
• accurate
• up-to-date

Earth Observation data from commercial and military satellite systems provide the ideal basis for this kind of geo-information. Databases have to be established and populated as well as being renewed, transformed into useable products, interpreted, enriched, linked to other information and provided to the final user as hardcopy or digitally.

GAF meets the demand for the acquisition and management of global geo-information in this sector by providing a number of highly competitive, operational and integrated services along the complete value adding chain and across all fields of thematic applications.

Our portfolio of activities in this domain includes (but is not limited to):

• Data selection and acquisition
• Data processing, analysis and production
• Integrated software solutions and systems for data transactions, processing and dissemination

Furthermore, GAF is able to support clients with individual training, workshops and consulting services so that users can make the most of the geo-information databases created.
