OUR COMPANY HAS IMPORTANT AND UNIQUE ASSETS BOTH IN TERMS OF SKILLS AND HIGH-LEVEL TECHNOLOGICAL INFRASTRUCTURES
OVER 15 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE IN SPACE ECONOMY MARKET
MapSAT is an Italian Space Company. The headquarter is located in Benevento (Campania Region) in order to meet a specific sector of the market, related to the growing demand for products and services of remote sensing for continuous monitoring of the Earth's soil and sea. These activities are aimed at protecting environment and climate, citizens security, urban planning, development of energetic and electrical infrastructure, prevention of human and natural risks and, more generally, updating and control of the elements of main interest to constantly increase the knowledge of territorial changes. MapSAT targets both public and private clients, with the aim of creating technology platforms dynamic and flexible, able to satisfy both of these stakeholders, working on customizing the hardware and software solutions based on the same technology. The same principle will be implemented in the objective of delivering and customizing solutions developed for military requirements, in application contexts of civil use (the so-called DUAL use).
MapSAT, since 2015, has assumed the management of MARSec (Mediterranean Agency for Remote Sensing and Environmental Control).
THE GROUND STATION
MAPSAT Ground Station is composed of three antennas:
- 2 made by SeaSpace Corporation;
- 1 made by M2 Antenna Systems Inc.
SeaSpace antennas: The X band system is equipped with an antenna of about 4.5 meters in diameter, with three-axis movement. The other L-band system has an antenna of about 1.2 meters in diameter. Computers automatically manage all antenna movements. These antennas communicate with VHR optical EO satellites. The system can receive passive remote sensing data - in the optic and infrared - with active remote sensing in the microwave and grounded sensors. In both systems, a scheduler automatically manages the satellite hooking and tracking, the azimuth movement and elevation of antennas and signal demodulation.
M2 Antenna Systems Inc: The UHF outdoor antenna to communicate with nano and micro satellites, both for Earth Observation and M2M missions. The antenna is principally equipped with: 4 UHF antennas; a rotator subsystem for the antenna orientation along the azimuth; a rotator subsystem for the antenna orientation along the elevation. Into MAPSAT Server Farm is active an indoor rack equipped with: two power transformers; a subsystem to control the outdoor antenna equipment; a modulator and a demodulator.
MAPSAT MARKET TARGETS
