As wildfires become more frequent and severe, the need for reliable, real-time information is more critical than ever. One of the most valuable tools in the wildfire management toolkit is the thermal sensor. These devices can detect and map heat, even when smoke, darkness, or terrain make visibility difficult.
Radar has earned a reputation in remote sensing for being among the most powerful and complex technologies to work with. While satellite radar systems have become more common, airborne radar systems designed specifically for mapping purposes remain rare. And for good reason: building and operating a radar system from scratch
When we set out to develop a high-performance optical imaging system, we start where many do – testing commercial off-the-shelf cameras. The idea was simple: find a camera with the right specifications and integrate it into an aerial platform. But as we quickly learned, optical imaging for aerial applications is
At GNO-SYS, we specialize in engineering LiDAR systems that deliver precise distance measurement and topographic mapping. Currently, our team is engaged in an exciting project to develop a custom LiDAR system tailored for a specialized application.
When it comes to high-resolution imaging for both airborne and space applications, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) systems provide unique advantages. SAR technology, increasingly popular over the past decade in satellite imaging, enables precise, high-resolution data collection that traditional optical systems can’t match, especially in challenging conditions. For satellites, particularly those
Many factors must be closely assessed when designing custom remote sensing systems. Whether using SAR, Optical Imagery, or Near Infrared, each system must align with the specific needs of the client and the data needed. From resolution to data collection to platform integration to budget, the timeline for all factors
