The partners are researching concrete applications and mapping which actors would be able to utilise the new technologies in their operations. - We have noticed that companies in many sectors should speed up their digitalisation activities and find new ways of utilising technology that would support this process. Both optical measurement technology and satellite data can offer new solutions that increase the efficiency of various functions and thus drive both innovation and competitiveness, both of which are important particularly in a pandemic situation, says Adopticum's CEO Kenth Johansson.
