Satlantic Inc.

Satlantic Incorporated is a leading developer of oceanographic
sensors. We provide the best precision and reliability in the
marine industry and our expert support staff can assist our
clients in all aspects of instrument use.
Satlantic Sensors and Surveillance systems support a range of
activities including; calibration of satellite sensors in orbit,
evaluation of the ocean battlespace for defence needs, monitoring
of pollution and water quality, and remote monitoring of harsh
and hostile environments.

Common to all of these activities is:
The development and deployment of precise sensing
solutions
Systems to acquire the data from remote sensors
Complex processing technology to collate the raw data
stream from single or networked sensors to extract the
necessary information
Dissemination tools to deliver customized information for
particular applications

Complementing all of this are the tools necessary to use the
derived information to rapidly assess the current and future
situation, enabling real-time operational decision-making.

Satlantic has developed an enviable global reputation for
innovation and excellence in these areas; we continue to
aggressively explore new technologies and applications where our
expertise can provide new capability and increased value to our
customers.



Satlantic is an advanced technology driven company that provides

Maritime Surveillance Systems
Software systems for analysis/processing of satellite imagery for maritime surveillance applications.

Optical Sensors
SENSORS FOR THE MILLENNIUM The OCR-500 micro-sensor series is a fully digital optical sensor package that combines precision optics with high performance microelectronics. Satlantic designed this sensor series for research applications where performance, size and power draw are key constraints. Uses for the OCR 500 series sensors include real-time profiling, moored, and autonomous deepwater buoy applications.

Synthetic Aperture Radar Processors
Advanced systems for the production of imagery from space and airborne synthetic aperture radars.

Mission Management Software Systems
Software systems for satellite mission management, and acquisition planning.

Harvestwatch
HarvestWatch provides complete measurement packages to controlled atmosphere facilities. By using innovative sensor technology, Satlantic can provide the ability to enhance produce post-storage quality and prolong storage time. FIRM (Flourescence Interactive Response Monitor) uses low power light sources to stimulate photo systems inside a small sample of the produce. Detection technology feeds the response back to an analytical software tool, HarvestWatch, where the output is displayed in a graphical format. HarvestWatch is a complete monitoring solution enabling controlled atmosphere operators the ability to monitor fruits and vegetables in multiple rooms, centralize the information, and assess the condition of the produce 24 hours a day. Features of the Sensor Technology: -Direct assessment of the produce health with no impact on current operations -Real-time information access -Easy graphical interpretation -Low-cost installation Benefits of the FIRM: -Early detection of produce storage problems -Improved product monitoring -Reduced potential for spoiled product -Enhanced understanding of plant physiology -Rapid cost recovery -Eliminate manual testing requirements *Custom applications available

Environmental Products And Services

Remotely Monitored Optical Instrumentation For Mooring Applications.
Toxic algal blooms (Red Tide), caused by massive blooms of algae, infect shellfish and other marine life with harmful toxins; killing fish, and often causing severe illness in anyone who unknowingly consumes infected shellfish. These toxic blooms have distinct optical properties which can be detected by Satlantic optical instrumentation. Satlantic developed this instrument for a local aquaculture site to provide a near real time early warning system to alert the operator of potentially hazardous levels of toxic algal. This 24 hour monitoring system reduces time spent completing water sample testing and can assist in preventing costly shellfish kills for the owner. Satlantic's strong ties with the research community and Dalhousie University, provides a unique opportunity to supply near real time data which is transmitted from the aquaculture site back to the research institute for processing in just 24 hours. This data is then displayed on a website where the owner and other researchers can review the data each day.
