Kolega Michal Šprlák se podílel na jedinečném výzkumu hustoty kůry a gravitačního pole Měsíce

6.11.2020 15:58   Blogující geomatici - FAV ZČU  

Známé údaje o nejbližším vesmírném sousedovi planety Země jsou opět o něco přesnější a zásluhu na tom má také vědec Michal Šprlák z katedry geomatiky Fakulty aplikovaných věd Západočeské univerzity v Plzni. On a jeho australští kolegové Shin-Chan Han a Will Featherstone totiž vyvinuli numerickou metodu, pomocí níž lze určit hustotu uvnitř planetárních těles na základě údajů nasbíraných družicemi. Metodu aplikovali právě na Měsíc, a získali tak velmi přesnou představu o hustotě jeho kůry. Údaje i vyvinutá metoda budou nyní sloužit dalším výzkumníkům, které o úspěchu informoval článek Crustal density and global gravitational field estimation of the Moon from GRAIL and LOLA satellite data (Odhad hustoty kůry a globálního gravitačního pole Měsíce z dat družicové mise GRAIL a senzoru LOLA) v mezinárodním vědeckém časopisu Planetary and Space Science.

The names of the #MyGalileoDrone semifinalists are in!

6.11.2020 11:27   European GNSS Agency  
30 shortlisted projects were selected based on their level of innovation, market potential, technical feasibility and the extent to which they leverage Galileo.
Published: 
06 November 2020

The European GNSS Agency’s (GSA) #MyGalileoDrone competition has kept the drone and GNSS community on their toes long enough, it is time to reveal the names of the most innovative projects that made it through the first selection. 

With 190 submissions, 346 registered teams and 470 registered applicants the first evaluation phase of the #MyGalileoDrone competition has proved to be an interesting journey into Europe’s creativity and innovation capital, as well as a testimony of the potential of this market for EU economy. The 30 shortlisted projects were selected based on their level of innovation, market potential, technical feasibility and the extent to which they leverage Galileo. The projects are targeting applications in all market segments, and integrate Galileo in all the service components, from the drone flying platform itself, to other payload as well as enabler for U-Space services.

To discover the 30 projects, click on the following 4 priority areas: 

Galileo igniting UAV innovation in Europe

The drone market is flourishing and it is expected to outstrip any other user base in the aviation market. According to estimations, revenues from drone-based services are expected to exceed 150 million euros by 20231 . The European GNSS is a key enabling technology for drones, robust positioning and precise timing and synchronization capabilities offered by Galileo and EGNOS are real added values that facilitate the integration of drones into non-segregated airspace and the U-space. The #MyGalileoDrone competition is a vehicle for boosting GNSS-based innovative applications, create new business opportunities for EU industry, with focus on SMEs and start-ups, t and ensuring Galileo uptake in the UAV market contributes to the achievement  of the European Commission’s priorities in terms of growth, innovation and sustainability.
