UAS for monitoring oil and gas pipelines
and mineral surveying
1. Feasibility study by Barnard
Microsystems & Inmarsat, with
Shell Global Solutions Projects
& Technology.
2. Beyond line of sight operation
where it might be irresponsible
to use pilots, such as in areas
of civil unrest.
3. Broadband satcoms downlink
provides both telemetry and
imaging.
4. Successful study has led to
Demo project SURMON.

Small Aircraft Situational Awareness
for emergency response (SASISA)
1. Enables first responders to use overhead surveillance during
initial, most critical phase of response.
2. Done real-time by combining satellite & terrestrial systems.
3. Complies with established operational methods & financial
limitations of civil public sector agencies.
4. Can also be used for routine monitoring of infrastructure.
5. Commercial off-the-shelf sensors fitted to small aircraft:
a. Infrared camera, high resolution optical camera.
6. Instant, two-way, broadband voice & data communications
between aircraft & emergency centre.
7. Larger demonstration project now being planned.

ARTES 20 demo : Space-AIS for Blue Belt
EMSA Blue Belt pilot project
The reception of reliable information on
ships’ prior to their arrival at port helps
Customs Authorities in their operations
(anticipating ship arrivals, risk assessment,
prioritisation of controls, etc).
The knowledge of ships’ actual routes
(especially beyond the coastal region) is
critical for the Customs Authorities to be
reassured about which ships are operating
on intra-EU trading routes, and may lead
in the future to a reduction of the
administrative burden for these ships.

The aim of the EMSA Blue
Belt pilot project is to
deliver notification
reports with ships
information to maritime
customs authorities of all
EU Member States.
ARTES 20 demo: Space-AIS for Blue Belt
EMSA Blue Belt project is using the short range coastal tracking system AIS, to
provide ship identification and position information. Its coverage is limited to
about 40 nautical miles from the coast.
The ARTES 20 project is extending this
coverage by using satellite detection of
AIS: AIS messages transmitted by ships are
collected from space, allowing a continuous
tracking of the ships with the possibility of
worldwide coverage.

AIS
Automatic Identification System
Space AIS data provided by the ARTES 20
project are combined with complementary
information (ships static data, terrestrial
AIS positions, etc) and sent in notification
reports to Customs Authorities.

Users & their needs
1. Academic users
2. Public Health (decision makers)
3. Control agencies
-
Critical & nuisance species
Where are they (mosquitoes, larvae, eggs), high resolution
When will eggs hatch & population peak
Cover a greater area with the same budget
Use less pesticides
