In recent years the satellite industry has undergone a profound change–and one that is still continuing.  High Throughput Satellites (HTS) have been joined by Very- and Ultra-High Throughput Satellites (VHTS and UHTS), and more recently by software defined satellites.  Thousands of Non-Geostationary Orbit (NGSO) satellites are in operation.  At the same time, new applications are constantly emerging.  In-orbit Servicing (IoS) is a reality and Space Situational Awareness (SSA) is becoming a necessity, the Internet-of-Things (IoT) extends its reach on a daily basis.

INTEGRASYS, a 34-year global leader in advanced software solutions,  announced a strategic partnership with Artel, an International Organization Standardization (ISO) 9001:2015 certified network systems integrator with a 30-year legacy as a Space and Satellite Solution and Service provider to the US Government.

Comtech (NASDAQ: CMTL) today announced that its Board of Directors has appointed John Ratigan, Chief Corporate Development Officer (CCDO), as interim Chief Executive Officer, effective immediately.

EO Master allows characterizing objects in real time for reducing the time and decision making in GEOINT applications by comparing images with 3D models, including but not limited to the latest eastern military platforms. Currently, Earth Observation over SAR and optical has become essential in any power-to-power war, however, tools are proprietary to each provider or EO technology which locks providers and forces users to utilize multi-platforms. EO Master is the first to cover optical and SAR image processing and target characterization used by government users without deep analysis knowledge to determine and compare real versus fake as well as traffic and population patterns.
Space is more congested and contested than ever before, therefore INTEGRASYS is releasing Orbisat, the newest solution for Space Situational Awareness and Space Surveillance and Tracking, that interconnects with existing proprietary or public subsystems and allows seamless automation for tracking, collision avoidance, telemetry, Telecommand & Control, as well as finding uncharacterized objects in LEO, MEO, GEO, Lunar or deep space.
In a landmark development for the broadcasting industry, iKOMG, a global frontrunner in satellite and live event broadcasting services, has announced a strategic cooperation with Cognacq–Jay Image, a leading provider of broadcast and digital media services.
