With the historic launch of the first full Carbon Storage licence round globally, the North Sea Transition Authority required a creative approach to managing this highly interactive process. The NSTA GIS team have delivered solutions to support internal and external users.

Data Architect

Develop a Minimal Viable Product that enables civil resilience commanders to identify at-risk individuals near an emergency easily. We use self-service open-source web mapping, FME, Geospatial Data Warehousing, SharePoint, and Tableau for efficient data location and presentation.

Esri UK has collaborated with 3 Local Planning Authorities on a series of pilots to explore ways of digitising the planning process using geospatial technology. Projects focused on common challenges including; community engagement, use of 3D and monitoring developer contribution

The driving ambition for OpusMap is to make UK Local Plans easier to understand and more accessible to the public, and for real-time plan making technologies and processes to be more accessible and efficient for planners to customise and apply to their internal plan production methodologies. Council planners need to be able to translate their vision spatially using the latest interactive mapping and multiple datasets. The public need to be able to access and engage with plans using their preferred devices, anything from a mobile phone to a 4K TV. OpusMap brings together digital mapping, multiple spatial data from multiple sources and the latest web-based digital technologies. It harnesses the global digital reach of the Internet and the dynamic technological capabilities of modern web browsers to provide a common and familiar digital interface through which planners and stakeholders participate, consult and collaborate in the plan making process.

Communication and Engagement management

As the manager of the seabed and much of the coastline around England, Wales and Northern Ireland, TCE plays a key role in enabling green energy, driving economic growth and jobs, and creating and protecting thriving biodiversity and marine environments. This includes development of the UK’s world-leading offshore wind industry, supporting the target to supply all the UK’s electricity from renewable sources by 2035.
With many competing demands for seabed space, including ports, shipping, cables, pipelines, CO2 storage, and renewable energy sources, TCE drives a co-ordinated approach to its management with its Whole of Seabed Programme, which sees a careful balance between protecting the marine environment and the rich biodiversity of the seas, whilst also helping facilitate the growth of sustainable industry sectors and the economies of local communities.
To meet these challenges, TCE is utilising digital solutions (RIO), and an innovative data science led approach.

Astroscale UK's mission is clear: to create a safe operating environment for the sustainable development of space for generations to come. Their digital achievements lie in their advanced space situational awareness and rendezvous and proximity operations capabilities, which enable the precise location, monitoring, and removal of space debris. By integrating AI-driven systems and high-precision geospatial data, Astroscale UK is redefining the role of technology in maintaining and protecting Earth’s orbital environment.

Their geospatial innovations are critical to capturing and removing space debris, which directly impacts the safe operation of satellites and other space assets. As the global reliance on geospatial data continues to grow, Astroscale UK is ensuring that this data remains reliable and free from disruption, preserving essential services on Earth.

Head of Smart City

The core idea is to provide an effective evidence base that empirically brings to life our anecdotal evidence of poor mobile user experience in Westminster. Over two months in early 2024, the council and Inakalum surveyed the borough, using normal mobile phones hosted in Veolia waste collection trucks, to identify the capacity challenges in the city.

The devices collected the data required to map capacity problems across all major mobile networks. By using waste trucks, we captured data in the morning, afternoon and evening, showing how capacity changes throughout the day. This data revealed specific areas of congestion and provided evidence for discussions with planners, so network connectivity can be factored into the planning process and help inform our Infrastructure Development Plan. Additionally, Ontix is leveraging the data to target areas for additional small cell deployments, which is the primary method of addressing capacity problems in dense urban areas.

Transforming Airspace Management through Real-Time Geospatial Digital Twin Solutions

"Emu Analytics’ real-time, geospatial digital twin software Flo.w, has been relaunched and advanced in 2024 to aid the UK’s Civil Aviation Authority, as solution called Airspace Analyser(AA).

AA is a cloud-based capability that continuously ingests and analyses the real-time location data that is emitted by aircraft in UK airspace. This data is processed, analysed & visualised to measure, monitor and alert the CAA of the usage and utilisation of the hundreds of segments (3D areas) of UK airspace.
CAA now understand airspace utilisation, determining if structures are effective and fit for their intended purpose, additionally providing the evidence required to assess whom and what might be impacted by proposed changes to UK airspace (now of significance as drone usage and space port evolution continues to put more demands on UK airspace).

Airspace Analyser provides analytics to the CAA that previously was very manual, out-dated and expensive to produce, on a real-time, digital basis."

This has been designed to support emergency services to allow users to upload any local name, alternative name or alias to an existing geographic name in the mapping database. These include cliffs, caves, sandbanks, lakes and buildings to name a few.

In addition to its primary purpose to capture alternative names, it also assists responders get to emergencies, with their location described with much greater confidence and speed. From only having a rough idea of location and needing to search the map, control room staff can simply type in a location nickname and be given a precise location.
