SatCom solutions presentation at the geo-konzept Open Day

31 May 2017

On the weekend of 20 May, Telespazio VEGA Deutschland was invited to participate in the Open Day organised by geo-konzept. Geo-konzept is a company providing satellite navigation and GIS technology for agriculture and forestry. More than 1000 experts attended the event.

During the Farm Festival, which marks also the 25th anniversary of geo-konzept, Telespazio VEGA Deutschland exhibited a number of SatCom products, such as a Fly-Away System, a stationary system as well as mobile solutions like BGAN terminals, hybrid modems and satellite telephony.

A live demo of the solution was given through the mobile demonstrator of the company, the SatCom car, providing the visitors with free Wi-Fi. Agricultural applications and services are becoming more and more dependent on accurate navigation data and a constant stream of data, be it through the mobile network (such as LTE) or, as presented by Telespazio VEGA Deutschland, through a satellite link. The company has already gained many years of research and experience in this field, collaborating with John Deere and DLG on a hybrid modem for tractors.

More SatCom solutions and the prototype of the hybrid modem will be on display at Agritechnica in autumn 2017 at the agriloc stand.
