IMAGE OF THE DAY
World Islands, Dubai, U.A.E.
This WordlView-3 (40cm) satellite image of The World Islands in Dubai, was acquired on May 8, 2020, The section covered by this image is the Europe resort, currently under development. This artificial archipelago of smaller islands developed in the shape of the world map. The World Islands are composed mainly of sand dredged from Dubai's shallow coastal waters from the Arabian Gulf. View more WorldView-3 satellite imagery.
Oil and Gas
With over four decades of experience, we use our unique understanding of the oil industry to help you assess risk and reduce expenses. By utilizing old and current multispectral satellite image data, spectral analysis and sub-pixel classification, old well locations can be recovered and coordinates adjusted to improve the geophysical and geological interpretation "before" additional wells are drilled in the same area. This increases the success ration considerable, especially when some of the old well locations have coordinate problems in excess of 1 km. Specialty services include recovery and coordinate adjustments of old wells, as well as seismic surveys in heavy jungle and desert terrain.
Mining
Multispectral imaging (VNIR), WorldView-3 Short Wave InfraRed (SWIR) and thematic mineral mapping allows researchers to collect reflectance data and absorption properties of soils, rock, and vegetation. By leveraging wavelengths and spectral reflectance data, spectral signatures, invisible to the human eye, can be established for mineral traces located on the surface. Our satellite imaging technology can yield unrivaled insight as to the composition of earth surfaces, greatly aiding geologists, scientists and researchers. This data could be utilized by trained photo geologists to interpret surface lithology's, identify clays, oxides, soil types and identify potential locations of minerals, from high and medium resolution satellite imagery.
Geographic Information Systems
Satellite Imaging Corporation (SIC) has developed comprehensive policy and procedures to include QA and QC in the planning stage of every project involving the use of satellite, aerial and UAV remote sensing data for GIS mapping. Using our extensive array of advanced satellite sensors to acquire new imagery, or use customer provided UAV imagery, we can provide you with unparalleled quality and geospatial accuracy to support your 2D or 3D GIS map applications such as precision agriculture mapping, land-cover classifications, change-detection from detailed VNIR, SWIR satellite imagery, Hyperspectral analysis and development/ utilization of deep learning techniques such as (semi) automated object-based image analysis (OBIA) and convolutional neural network (CNN) algorithms.
