Dear Friends and Colleagues,

ATSB (an organization under MOSTI) and Geomatika College International (a private Remote Sensing and Geospatial College) are organizing a Geoimagery Malaysia 2011 Conference and Exhibition on 22-23 November 2011, at The Legend Hotel, Kuala Lumpur. We expected 400 participants, from government agencies and private sectors, to attend the conference. The conference will be officiated by the Minister of MOSTI. The conference is programmed to have 6 keynote papers, 18 high quality research papers (3 parallel sessions) and a panel discussion session with 6 senior well known panelists from Razaksat Satellite, remote sensing Technologies, and Remote Sensing Applications, GIS, GPS and Business background. There will be 25 booths for exhibition. We will have a long session for visitors and participants to visit the exhibition booths, and we will schedule the minister to visit every exhibition booths; and we will provide a business meeting room for FREE for business discussion.

This is a Remote Sensing and GIS Conference. The theme of the conference is “Intelligent Innovation through Geoimagery". The conference will cover subjects on Remote Sensing Data, Remote Sensing Platforms, Razaksat, UAV, GIS and GPS technologies for natural resources management, disasters management, environmental management and monitoring, and applications ( in agriculture, plantation, marine, forestry, geology, coral etc), and RS/GIS technology innovations.

For exhibitors, I would like to invite you to take one or two booths for your company and present one keynote paper regarding your current and future remote sensing technologies, GIS technologies, and related technologies.

And for those who seek knowledge, I would like to invite you to attend the conference and visit the exhibition booths.

I would like to stress that, this is a Remote Sensing and GIS Conference. The theme of this conference is “Intelligent Innovation through Geoimagery". The innovation in extraction of electromagnetic waves (400nm to 2500nm)  for application in agriculture, forestry, natural resources management, disaster management, marine, climate, engineering etc.

SPOT 5 FOR AGRICULTURE

SPOT 5 FOR AGRICULTURE

Technology

Our primary application aircraft is an Air Tractor 301. It’s a 1350 litre capacity aircraft with a 600 HP radial engine. We can run this aircraft on Automotive Fuel which allows us a significant saving over the cost of running Avgas.

Our AirTractor is equipped with JARBA booms. This spray boom was invented and developed by Jones Air, a very progressive aerial cotton spraying company in St George QLD. The JARBA system incorporates a FarmScan on board spray controller and maintains a constant flow rate per hectare, regardless of ground speed. It also maintains a constant droplet size, regardless of airspeed. (It does this by rotating the nozzles into or out of the airflow.) Application rate and droplet size are critical to ensuring an effective job and minimising drift, which is importantly going to keep your neighbours happy. We are unique in North Queensland in using this system.

Our second application aircraft is a model known as the Eagle. The Eagle was designed and built during the energy crisis at the beginning of the 1980s. Its extraordinarily long wing span and choice of engine enable it to cover more hectares per litre of fuel with a very wide, even spray pattern with minimal drift. We commenced operations with the Eagle in April ’09 and are finding it a very effective platform. The Eagle is rapidly becoming our platform of choice.

Israel Sells Heron UAVs to India

more
In November 2005, media reports claimed that India was set to purchase some 50 Heron MALE (Medium Altitude, Long Endurance) UAVs from Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI) in a deal worth $220 million. They would be put to use carrying out reconnaissance missions on India’s mountainous borders with China and Pakistan, and along India’s long coastal waters. India was said to have been close to sealing the deal in 2004, but it was postponed due to the change in governments in New Delhi.

The Russian Armed UAV

September 2, 2011: Russia has introduced its first armed UAV; the Lutch. The 800 kg (1,760 pound) aircraft can carry up to 160 kg (352 pounds) of weapons. Based on the two-seat Sigma 5 sports aircraft, Lutch is designed to stay airborne for 18 hours, or up to 30 if fewer sensors and weapons are carried. Max speed is 270 kilometers an hour and the Lutch can operate up to 350 kilometers from the base station. Weapons would be current anti-tank missiles, which tend to weigh 50 kg (110 pounds) and have a range of 6,000 meters.
