Azercosmos, the satellite communications company of Azerbaijan announced new cooperation agreement with Bayanat company, Bayanat, an ADX listed public company and leading provider of AI-powered geospatial solutions in the United Arab Emirates UAE in the area of Geographic Information Systems GIS.
According to the agreement, the parties will cooperate in the area of Geographic Information Systems GIS. This includes promoting potential projects and opportunities for the acquisition, processing and application of remote sensing data, geospatial data capabilities, experience and knowledge sharing. Moreover,
Azercosmos will be able to utilize the geospatial information platform that belongs to Bayanat for 1 year. Within the framework of the cooperation, the expansion of the use of Earth observation solutions during mapping and research in the field of oil and gas is also planned.
Bayanat’s capabilities into the space sector positions the company to drive its growth strategy and become a prominent player in the industry.
SAR is an active sensing system that illuminates the Earth’s surface and measures the reflected signal to generate high-resolution images. Unlike traditional optical imaging satellites, SAR can capture images day and night, regardless of weather conditions or solar illumination.
Bayanat’s program aims to develop a constellation of at least five SAR low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites to provide a consistent data stream for end-to-end solutions for SAR applications.
It should be noted that Bayanat has been providing high-quality geographic information, geospatial and artificial intelligence-powered data analytics in the Middle East and beyond for more than 40 years.
