Successful launch for interaerial SOLUTIONS

The interaerial SOLUTIONS communications platform premiered at INTERGEO 2015 in Stuttgart really took off with exhibitors and visitors alike. Unmanned aircraft system (UAS) manufacturers and suppliers of all manner of UAS-related solutions took to the stage to fly high and showcase their skills. Uwe Nortmann, the managing director of Germany’s UAV association, said: “INTERGEO’s interaerial SOLUTIONS underlines the event’s clear positioning as the leading trade fair for applications involving unmanned aircraft systems.” The event planners’ autopilot system is now firmly set for INTERGEO 2016 in Hamburg.

The trifold combination of exhibition zone, aerial show and presentations program at interaerial SOLUTIONS worked an absolute treat. New exhibitors and seasoned customers alike lauded the success of the platform for UAS manufacturers and suppliers of all manner of UAS-related solutions: “It was our first time at INTERGEO and we found the visitors to be extremely well-informed and very high-calibre indeed,” said Ian Smith from Dronedeploy, based in San Francisco, USA. “INTERGEO provided us with valuable insights into the applications for UAS in Europe and elsewhere in the world. We will be using this knowledge to further improve our software.”

Distinct port of call
interaerial SOLUTIONS is designed to offer a very distinct port of call for civil applications of UAS. The new format – covering more than 80 UAS exhibitors, around 40 presentations on the applications and legal framework, and its fully-booked Flight Zone for live demonstrations – really took off. “The applications for unmanned aircraft systems are exploding. Start-ups and large corporations alike want to establish a foothold in the market,” says Uwe Nortmann, managing director of UAV DACH e.V., Germany’s Unmanned Aircraft Vehicle Association, who contributed his expertise to the event. “INTERGEO is clearly forging ahead as the leading trade fair for UAV applications,” he adds.

Future-proof platform
Exhibitors and visitors alike were impressed by the launch of this new concept, praising the international credentials of its exhibition and programme in particular. Michael Niesen, managing director of Mavinci GmbH, commented: “I’d say that the international clientèle attracted to interaerial SOLUTIONS makes it a future-proof platform. All UAS-relevant markets can be accessed from here.” The high concentration of applications, the profound expertise offered by UAV DACH and the close-up live demos in the Flight Zone really took off with exhibitors and visitors alike.

interaerial SOLUTIONS flying high
INTERGEO’s organiser HINTE GmbH is keen to use this tailwind of positive feedback as an extra incentive to expand interaerial SOLUTIONS at INTERGEO 2016 in Hamburg. “We are only just embarking on commercial uses for UAS and will certainly be building upon this initial success at forthcoming events. All I can say is there’s something in the air,” says Daniel Katzer, head of trade fairs at HINTE GmbH. The next runway for the UAS will be rolled out in June 2016 at the GEOSummit – Trade fair and conference for geoinformation in Berne and then again in October at INTERGEO 2016 in Hamburg, of course.

Intergeo 2015: Satel is on its way to becoming the market leader in the area of mission-critical radio communication

Joint trade fair exhibit with exclusive German partner Welotec



At Intergeo from 15 - 17 September 2015 the Finnish radio data communication specialist Satel will present innovative new products, a step toward establishing itself as the market leader in mission-critical radio data networks. In Germany, radio data communication solutions from Satel are distributed exclusively by the full-range and systems provider Welotec. At the trade fair in Stuttgart the partners will present their products at adjacent stands.

By 2020 Satel intends to be the world's number one provider of mission-critical data connections. This goal also includes becoming the technology leader, which the company will achieve through intensified research and development. That these measures are already producing results will be evident at this year's Intergeo, where Satel will present its latest products. For example, visitors will be able to see the OEM modules Satelline-M3-TR1 and Satelline-M3-TR4. These modules allow use of the frequencies requiring a license (330 - 473 MHz) as well as the European license-free frequency ranges (433.05 - 434.79 MHz and 869.400 - 869.650 MHz). The newly developed Satelline-M3-TR4 is currently the smallest available data transceiver module in its class. The Satel Compact-Proof is a portable radio data modem with a rechargeable battery and a flexible tuning range (403 - 473 MHz). The robust Satelline EASy Pro 25W, likewise with a broad tuning range (403 - 473 MHz), allows radio communication up to a range of 50 km, which makes it quite versatile.

At the world's leading trade fair for geodesy, geoinformation and land management, Satel will present its products directly adjacent to the company's exclusive German partner, Welotec GmbH. Both Satel as a radio data communication specialist and Welotec as a full-range and systems provider have a strong portfolio for the core market of RTK/GNSS, UAV and RPAS applications. Welotec offers a large range of antennas, for example, which more than optimally supplement the Satel radio data modems: the antennas cover a large frequency range from 68 MHz to 6000 MHz, indoor and outdoor applications, MIMO technology and also antennas with an operating range from -40 °C to +80 °C for use in harsh environments. At the trade fair in Stuttgart visitors will also be impressed by innovative solutions from Welotec in the area of industrial communication - for example the industrial UMTS, LTE and WLAN routers of the TK800 series or the high-performance Industrial-WLAN access point DM500. For measuring tasks Welotec offers the laser distance sensor OWTB V2.1, which features an extremely high resolution and ranges of up to 500 metres, making it ideal for industrial applications.
