ESA BIC alumni builds water quality portal for UNESCO
ESA Business Incubation Centre alumni EOMAP was selected by UNESCO to build the world’s first global water quality portal.
It will support the International Initiative on Water Quality of UNESCO’s International Hydrological Programme with global water quality assessment and capacity building for streams, lakes and rivers.
EOMAP is a start-up from ESA Business Incubation Centre Bavaria and is a global service provider of satellite-derived aquatic information in maritime and inland waters for the commercial offshore industry as well as a multitude of government agencies.
Pioneering the field of satellite-derived bathymetry and high resolution water quality monitoring, EOMAP services rely on standardized physical models which are independent of scale, sensor type and geographic location.
Additional key services include seafloor, coastal environment and infrastructure mapping.
