GREEK NATIONAL SATELLITE SPACE PROJECT: AXIS 3 SAFETY AND SECURITY SERVICE

GREEK NATIONAL SATELLITE SPACE PROJECT: AXIS 3 SAFETY AND SECURITY SERVICE

  • Role: Partner
  • Period: 2024-2026
  • Funded by: The European Commission and the Hellenic Republic

Orion Lab is leading the Wildfire Analysis and Surveillance component of the safety and security service, leveraging cutting-edge deep learning (DL) technologies and ultra-high-resolution thermal satellite data from the Greek National Satellite Space Project to tackle wildfires in Greece. Their key contributions include:

  1. Dataset Creation & AI Pipelines
    • Developing and curating datasets to support AI-driven insights.
    • Implementing pipelines for advanced wildfire analysis.
  2. Earth System Modeling
    • Modeling environmental systems to predict and analyze wildfire behavior.
  3. Natural Hazards Monitoring & Forecasting
    • Wildfire Danger Forecasting: Anticipating areas at high risk for wildfires.
    • Fire Risk Assessment: Evaluating ongoing risks for extreme events detection
    • Active Fire Detection: Near Real-time monitoring of active wildfire events.
  4. Post-Fire Monitoring and Risk Analysis
    • Burn Scar Mapping: Identifying and mapping areas affected by fires.
    • Fire Severity Mapping: Assessing the intensity of wildfire damage.
    • Restoration and Regeneration Monitoring: Tracking ecosystem recovery after wildfires.
