With global temperatures continually rising, and with local extremes of dry, hot weather, wildfires are a growing concern worldwide, with a devastating impact on the environment, communities, and economies.
Geospatial Insight is leading the CACHE Net Zero (Clean Air Clean Harbour Energy for Net Zero) project, co-funded by the European Space Agency (ESA), which empowers ports to effectively plan, implement and then monitor key actions that will deliver reductions in air pollution and carbon emissions associated with harbour operations.
Geospatial Insight, the UK’s leading provider of clean energy geospatial solutions, has launched the next phase of their LOCATE platform, LOCATE SOLAR, the most detailed, comprehensive, and up-to-date national rooftop solar sustainability database, containing over 23,000,000 individual building entries each with over 20 unique solar-centric attributes.
Essex County Council is responsible for over 3,600sqkm of land, 750,000 buildings and in excess of over 1.5 million people. In 2020 the Authority launched a dedicated Essex Climate Action Commission. The Committee released the Essex Climate Action Plan in November 2021, with the aim of making the entire county Carbon Net Zero by 2050.
Last month we attended the Hexagon EMEA Reseller Meeting in Mallorca – it has been a couple of years since we’ve actually been able to meet in person and so it was a great opportunity to catch up with both the Hexagon team and Resellers from across the region.

With a wide range of experience in utilising remotely sensed data – such as satellite imagery – in tandem with advanced analytics to create bespoke
In an increasingly virtual world, it is no surprise that the advancement of stereo visualisation is developing at an unprecedented rate. Within the geospatial community,
The stereo 3D viewing experience has always had some issues associated with it, with standard screens suffering from dim lighting and requiring the use of 3D glasses. More recently, fewer graphics card vendors are supporting traditional stereo displays. Vision Engineering, a global optical and digital innovation and manufacturing company, have now changed the game. CONTOUR is the future of glasses-free 3D stereoscopic displays, designed specifically for GIS professionals.
