Company Overview

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 precision sensing and information solutions to a range of clients operating in rapidly changing environments. From remote ocean areas to controlled atmosphere environments, Satlantic designs, manufacturers, operates and delivers a wide range of precision sensors, time-critical surveillance systems, and advanced information extraction tools to a highly advanced customer base on a global scale.

Satlantic sensors and information systems support a range of activities including calibration of satellite sensors on orbit, evaluation of the ocean battlespace for defence needs, monitoring of pollution and water quality, and remote monitoring of harsh and hostile environments such as mixed gas enclosures. Common to all of these 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 a single or networked sensors to extract the necessary information, and the 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.

Services

• Maritime Surveillance

  Wide area surveillance of maritime environment/battlespace using a range of assets on satellites, aircraft, vessels, and autonomous platforms.

Products

• Environmental Products And Services
• 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

  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.

• 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.

• Research Equipment, Oceanographic

  MICRO Profiler Oceanographic Intrument

  The lightweight free-fall profiling device is specifically designed to provide a versatile profiling platform for the high-resolution OCR 500 series optical sensors.

• Synthetic Aperture Radar Processors

  Advanced systems for the production of imagery from space and airborne synthetic aperture radars.
