This week, Tõnis Oja, AS Datel Space team InSAR specialist is gaining new knowledge at a remote sensing workshop on the geodetic applications of synthetic aperture radar in Espoo, Finland. The workshop is sponsored by the International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG), International Associations of Geodesy (IAG), and Seismology and Physics of Earth's Interior (IASPEI) within IUGG.
The week continues with Working group meetings of the Nordic Geodetic Commission (NKG), the Working Group of Geodynamics and Earth Observations (WGGEO), and the Working Group for Height and Geoid (WGHG).

A project covering the entire Estonian school network was successfully completed at the end of last week. During the project, Datel's ICT department delivered and installed local area network devices for over 300 schools.

More than 8,000 different local area network devices were installed during the project, and more than two million meters of cables were laid. The majority of local area networks are managed locally, but the central administration system also allows all school LANs to be administered centrally. With nearly 5,500 Wi-Fi base stations, this makes the network the largest of its kind in Northern Europe.

"If you imagine what can be done in the country, a wide field of work for simplifying and optimizing the functions of the state opens up.
How can we achieve that the long-term development strategy is not a place for political rivalry, but a plan put together by experts?"

AS Datel as a member of the Estonian ICT Cluster had the opportunity to participate in the 5th Conference of Partnerships between German and African Municipalities in Dresden from 20 to 22 September 2022.
At the geographic information systems (GIS) workshop Aimo Kõva from AS Datel introduced the fields where geodata could be used and beneficial – cadastre, utilities, statistics, tourism, disaster prevention, etc. The workshop was carried out in cooperation with Patrick Bühler from geoinformation department in Sindelfingen municipality, Germany.
