The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications and the Land Board have unveiled an application that has overlaid three-dimensional building renders over the map of Estonia, allowing people to visualize most buildings in Estonia. 
3D twin, developed by AS Datel,  includes three-dimensional models of buildings throughout Estonia. The ground elevation model and 3D models of buildings used in 3D twin are created by the Land Board. 

This digital tool is especially helpful for the real estate and construction sectors, but can also provide important information to, for example, a private individual purchasing a house. The new digital tool allows a look at what a building would look like in the existing environment, what restrictions should be considered when designing the building, and how shadows will affect the building.

The Estonian IT company Datel has conducted a study into technological options for creating a research archive of heliophysical data collected during the Solar Orbiter mission of the European Space Agency (ESA).

Engineers from Estonia assessed 10 database technologies designed for recording time series, four of them in more detail. According to Evelin Kasenõmm, the Head of Space Domain at Datel, all of the shortlisted technologies were open-source or open-source licensed.

17-19 March 2021 we will present Infrastructure Monitoring System SILLE at the International Conference on Disaster Resilient Infrastructure, ICDRI2021.

ICDRI is the annual international conference of the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure (CDRI) in partnership with member countries, organizations, and institutions to strengthen the global discourse on disaster and climate-resilient infrastructure. 

Looking forward to meeting you at the Conference Marketplace!

The event is organized by the Indian Chamber of Commerce, the leading body of business and industry in East and North East India.
The virtual Security Expo brings together industry leaders to examine emerging business opportunities in Defence and Security.

Our Space Team shares information on remote sensing capabilities in the mining industry.

AS Datel’s Infrastructure Monitoring System SILLE offers a proactive tool for structural integrity monitoring and disaster prevention. In addition to identifying if surrounding construction, mining, or geological subsidence has caused a deformation or structural weaknesses, the service also allows users to develop a timeline for existing subsidence related issues, including data that land or structural deformities pre-existed construction or mining work.

"Hämarik appeared silent before, but we were able to send commands to the satellite with more amplified antennas and Hämarik started communicating. The main radio does not appear to be working, but the backup radio is talking and we have regular communication. The contact with the first satellite Koit is very weak and still early to tell how the satellite is doing or what exactly happened before", said Rauno Gordon, Space center manager at Tallinn University of Technology.

Last week we were happy to share the benefits of the Datel ś Early Warning System SILLE at India´s 1st and largest smart exhibition for smart technologies- Smartec India 2020.

More than 10 thousand Smart Technologies Professionals participated in the virtual expo.

Our Country Head India - Ankit Bahl introduced  the possibilities to monitor critical infrastructure remotely using data from space. 

On September 3rd Vega rocket carrying student satellite Hämarik launched from the space centre at Kourou. For now we know that the rocket has reached orbit and Hämarik has separated from the rocket.

Koit and Hämarik are 1U cube satellites (10 * 10 * 10 cm). The mission with which the student satellites will be tasked is primarily surveillance of the Earth using dithering and near-infrared cameras.
