Exhibitors and Sponsors

Exhibiting at #UKEO2024

We have an impressive line-up of exhibitors awaits delegates to the UK National Earth Observation Conference (UKEO2024). From industry, to funders, to research organisations, the range of showcases available at the STEM Centre York from September 10th-12th, will represent the breadth and depth of UK expertise in Earth Observation and Photogrammetry. Here is our guide to just some of the exhibitors and sponsors so far:
Visit our stand to find out how we can help you to:
  • Introduce you to reliable providers of climate data from space, including open access and commercial suppliers
  • Connect you to academic, industry and public sector experts and decision-makers
  • Discover examples of climate products and services that UK EO experts are delivering worldwide
  • Raise the profile of your work nationally and internationally – including through our free Climate Services Database and the Space Climate Observatory
  • Meet potential collaborators
  • Join Space4Climate – a non-commercial membership organisation for the academic, industry and public service sectors
Space4Climate is chaired by the UK Space Agency and hosted by NCEO at Reading University, find out more about Space4Climate and our members at www.Space4Climate.com and on LinkedIn.

"The conference is a great opportunity to hear and share exciting developments in space-based climate research, projects and products. We are looking forward to meeting members and new connections to talk about how Space4Climate can help you achieve your aims, so make sure you come up and say ‘hello’.

RAL Space is the UK National Space Laboratory advancing the understanding of space and environment for the benefit of all. In 2022 RAL Space celebrates 60 years in space during which time we have been involved in some of the major international science missions from the European Remote Sensing (ERS) satellite, carrying twin instruments developed by RAL Space which monitored sea surface temperature for two decades, to many of the major solar observing missions, and more recently, the James Webb Space Telescope which has just started its work to observe the universe.
 
The Centre for Environmental Data Analysis (CEDA) is based within the RAL Space Department of the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC). JASMIN is co-managed by CEDA and STFC’s Scientific Computing Department.   CEDA serves the environmental science community through provision of:

 

  • CEDA Archive – a long term data archive 
  • JASMIN – a data intensive supercomputer

The CEDA Archive forms part of NERC’s Environmental Data Service, a network of data centres covering all aspects of environmental science. Our team coordinate data management on behalf of Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) for the UK atmospheric science and earth observation communities. 
 
JASMIN is a globally unique data intensive supercomputer for environmental science. Over 160 science projects are currently supported, covering topics ranging from climate science and oceanography to air pollution, earthquake deformation and analysis of wildlife populations.

 

As part of the National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO), the Remote Sensing group has developed a web-based visualisation tool to enable a simple, quick view of a growing range of their products, both for scientists and public interest. Providing a quick method of overlaying multiple datasets, including simple time evolution. The tool has allowed natural events to be rapidly identified and monitored, leading to more detailed scientific study. Some examples will be presented at the RAL Space stand during the conference, including volcanoes, large scale fires, and heatwaves. So please drop-by the RAL Space stand for a demonstration of the visualisation tool and explore how to access our services and engage in future collaborative research projects
 
 
Surrey Satellite Technology Limited (SSTL) is a UK headquartered prime contractor at the forefront of space innovation, delivering scientific instruments and small-satellite missions for Earth Observation and other applications. Formed in 1981, SSTL has built and launched 74 satellites for 20 international customers. 9 missions are in development, including HydroGNSS an ESA Scout mission, the TYCHE satellite for Space Command, and HotSat-2 for SatVu. The company has extensive heritage in optical instruments including the (SWIR) spectrometer for the TROPOMI instrument on Sentinel 5 Precursor, the CHRIS Hyperspectral instrument on Proba-1, the MS instrument for EarthCARE and a number of high-resolution instruments. SSTL is active in working with academic partners and customers to generate novel concepts and deliver new small-satellite missions.

With over 30 years’ experience in satellite-based Earth Observation, Airbus Defence and Space is Europe’s leading space systems and services specialist. It operates its own satellite constellation, works with other satellite operators and provides Earth Observation services including data management to customers worldwide across markets including maritime, agriculture and environmental monitoring.

Airbus is a recognised world leader in geo-information, successfully pooling unmatched access to Earth Observation satellite imagery. Airbus combines expertise in EO data management, analytics, EO data quality control and service management.
Telespazio UK has over 40 years’ experience in space applications and services, with expertise in satellite ground segments, data exploitation platforms, data quality assurance and industry-specific geoinformation services (including climate risk disclosure, flood monitoring and asset and infrastructure management).

"The National EO Conference presents the perfect opportunity to see everyone in person again, bringing together industry, government and academia. With the release of the first National Space Strategy in September 2021, we are excited to see what comes next for the UK space sector and to discuss EO and climate priorities that build on UK strengths and boost our economy. We are looking forward to exhibiting and presenting at the UK National EO Conference 2024. If you are attending, please drop by our stand.”

Make sure you are part of the largest EO and Photogrammetry event in the UK this year – to book a stand contact Tara Thompson, and register as a delegate.
