Flyby was funded in 2001 with the main aim of assimilating the results obtained within the remote sensing scientific community, improve their theoretical models and transform them into applications for the public and into commercial products. Optical EO satellite data has been a valuable source since the beginning and allowed for the delivery of several products based on following information:
- on ground solar Energy for photovoltaic plants
- on ground UV radiation intensity
- on ground cloud index
- sea water transparency and temperature
- sea concentration of various substances
- detection and classification of sea oil spills
- sea floor bathymetry
- forest fires detection
Flyby collaborates with important public bodies and private companies, both involved either at the level of users in European funded project or as partners in commercial projects.
