e-GEOS, a joint venture between Telespazio (80%) and the Italian Space Agency (20%), and Beijing Vasttitude Technology, a Chinese company active in the field of remote sensing and geoinformation, signed a multi-year agreement for the distribution in China of satellite data and related operational services generated by the Italian constellation COSMO-SkyMed.
Based on this agreement, e-GEOS will supply satellite data to Beijing Vasttitude Technology, its exclusive dealer in China, through a ground station (CUT: Terminal Commercial User) installed in the country. The Italian company, in collaboration with the local partner, will also develop value-added services for civil uses such as monitoring the Chinese territory and its stability.
Intended for the needs of local institutions and companies, satellite monitoring will guarantee a millimetric accuracy of information, providing the necessary support to control phenomena such as urban subsidence and landslides, or the safety of large infrastructures such as railways and gas pipelines.
