South Coast Centre of Excellence in Satellite Applications
Marine South East are undertaking a facilitation role in the South Coast Centre of Excellence in Satellite Applications which aims to grow business investment in collaborative projects using satellite services (commications, navigation and earth observation) and data analytics.
The Centre will innovate projects across multiple organisations and embed them within collaborative projects that develop novel satellite applications and their underpinning technologies. It will engage with all businesses to exploit the use of satellite data, technology and parallel applications, such as autonomous data systems and data processing/web services, in order to allow them to gain a competitive advantage in a global market. Key market areas include the marine sector.

The South Coast Centre of Excellence hosted a workshop looking at the opportunities for satellite applications in the maritime risk management sector in September 2016.
The workshop looked to validate the need for novel solutions, assess the current innovations and to prioritise the solutions for implementation.
