Besides providing aerospace applications to the African markets, the company also focusses on satellite communications, navigation, and remote sensing applications.
One of its long-term goals is to bridge the digital divide by providing infrastructure to rural areas, which will provide Internet access, thereby providing the power of online education, online payment, and telemedicine.
The company’s remote sensing applications are a boost to disaster management, weather forecasting, and land cover mapping. It also provides applications in road transport vehicle management, and mining management using intelligent mapping systems.
