Strong: Need for innovation due to ground prices Weak: Densely measured by in situ / airborne / UAV’s Opportunity: Rectangular flat parcels, small country Threats: Need for higher resolution data

Earth observation in The Netherlands

• 15-20 SME’s (1-100 FTE), which focus on satellite data
• Mainly spin-offs of universities (Wageningen, Delft, Amsterdam)
• Mainly spin-offs of universities (Wageningen, Delft, Amsterdam)
• Market:
• The Netherlands

(precision agriculture, deformations)

• The Netherlands

(precision agriculture, deformations)

• Marine

(marine conditions, water quality)

• Tropics

(deforestation)

• Developing countries (water management, food security)
• Developing countries (water management, food security)

Lim ited grow th dow nstream sector

• Satellite images are expensive
• The (foreseen) customer is unaware of the possibilities
• Competition with aerial images (resolution!)
• Only SME’s involved
• Only SME’s involved
• Limited connection with geo information market
• A scientist is in general not an entrepeneur…

• Economic profit for end-users (precision agriculture)
• Reduction of pollution (pesticides in agriculture)
• Reduction of governmental costs (e.g. deformation measurements)
• Quick start for NL value adding sector
• Ministry of Economic Affairs signs contract in Oct 2011.

Ministry of Infrastructure and Environment joins later in Dec 2012.

Conclusions

• Satellite data portal 2012 – 2015 (national funded)
• Preparation for the Sentinel program (EU funded)
• Multiple applications from the data

(NL focus: precision farming, deformation monitoring) Potential need for other (higher resolution) data

• Potential need for other (higher resolution) data
