About SATIM

• The SATIM company was established as a spin-off
  company at the University of Science and
  Technology in Cracow in 2012.
• Our goal is two-fold
• To develop new methods of satellite EO data
  processing and analysis
• To introduce the satellite EO potential to the
  market

3
Areas of Interest

• Research Development
• We are continously working on developing new data
  processing and analysing
• methods dedicated for
• SAR radar interferometry
• SAR radar polarimetry
• Our work also focuses on
• Developing new applications for satellite and
  air-borne SAR data

Areas of Interest

• Applications
• We apply the satellite remote sensing data (both
  radar and optical) for different
• environmental applications
• Natural hazards monitoring (e.g. movements of the
  Earths crust, landslides, sinkholes, floods)
• Monitoring of Earths surface in mining
  applications (e.g. postmining deformations,
  impact of the coal mines on the environment)
• Monitoring of the infrastructure (e.g. stability
  of buildings and constructions, roads
  deformations, urban monitoring)
• Environmental studies (e.g. assessment of land
  cover changes or biomass)

Our experience

• As a scientists and enterpreneurs we have
  gathered experience in a number of
• scientific and commercial projects on a national
  and international levels.
• Some of our previous and current projects
  include
• Pattern recognition-based decomposition for
  quad-polarimetric SAR data, financed by ESA under
  the PECS programme,
• Earth Observation for Monitoring and Assessment
  of the Environmental Impact of Energy Use
  (EnerGEO), co-funded by the 7th Framework
  Programme of the European Commission,
• Improving scene analysis from Multiple SAR images
  acquisitions, financed by EADS Astrium

Our experience

• We also took part in a few courses organized by
  ESA
• ESA Advanced Training Course on Land Remote
  Sensing, 2011, Krakow
• ESA Advanced Course on Radar Polarimetry, 2011,
  Frascati (Italy)
• ESA Radar Remote Sensing Course, 2010, Warsaw

SATIM in IAP

• We have experience in cooperating with ESA, but
  not within the IAP programme.
• As a specialists in one particular field (Earth
  Observation) we are open for cooperation with
  companies specialising in other space
  applications (e.g. satellite navigation,
  communications, etc.) to take part in ESAs IAP
  programme.
