A growing number of companies are having their data accessible free of charge: in 2008, the United States Geological Survey made free-to-use data from its Landsat satellites, contributing to a major increase in the usage of satellite data for scientific and industrial purposes. The European Space Agency has now introduced a focus on free and transparent data for the Copernicus program.</p><p></p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8028322861,original{{/staticFileLink}}" target="_blank"><img src="{{#staticFileLink}}8028322861,original{{/staticFileLink}}" class="align-center" alt="8028322861?profile=original" /></a></p><p></p><h2><strong>What are satellite data services?</strong></h2><p><a href="https://www.kbvresearch.com/satellite-data-services-market/">Satellite data services</a> are designed to implement satellite Earth Observation ( EO) technologies that are transverse to the broad EPOS population and ideal for usage in many solid Earth science application scenarios. Satellite Data is integrated by National Research Infrastructures that have innovative and established Earth Observation (EO) products and services to be used in many Solid Earth Sciences technology scenarios.</p><p></p><p>Satellite data services are cloud-based services providing access to near-real-time, ready-to-use satellite imagery and products derived from Sentinel-1 and 2 satellites. They handle pre-processing and associated costs, so you don't have to. Low cost monthly or annual licenses provide consumers with access to review of ready-to-use satellite data under an open data license for applications to help track, control, and calculate land-based operation and change over time.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Who needs satellite data services?</strong></h2><h3><strong>Natural resources</strong></h3><p>Satellite data services and GIS Maps (Geographic Information Systems) have a significant role in the evaluation and study of natural resources, including livestock, forestry, and coastal management. Satellite images can offer up to 30 centimeters of spatial resolution for improved study, measurement, and tracking of natural resources.</p><p></p><p>This technology can contribute to a wide range of global change-related potential applications for vegetation and ecosystem dynamics, hazard and disaster monitoring, geological and soil analysis, land surface climatology, hydrology, land cover change, and the generation of ortho-rectified Digital Elevation Models (DEMs).</p><p></p><h3><strong>Defense & Intelligence</strong></h3><p>Satellite data services provide geospatial services to government departments and military companies for various defense and security mapping applications. From satellite picture acquisition to final image analysis, these services can recognize the need for impeccable precision and image quality for the mapping and knowledge requirements.</p><p></p><p>Satellite imagery and GIS maps optimize security systems that enable local governments to properly evaluate and consider how to implement strategies to save a life, protect property, and enhance the potential economic prosperity of their cities. Current threats to a world range from terrorism activities and intelligence assaults on vital facilities to the possible usage of weapons of mass destruction and the spread of infectious diseases. Each of these threats could cause massive losses and disruption to a country.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Mining</strong></h3><p>Satellite data services and aerial photography have proven to be valuable resources for mineral discovery projects. They can be seen in a number of ways. First, they supply geologists and field crews with the location of paths, highways, fences, and inhabited areas. It is critical for mapping future access corridors for exploration areas and considering the environmental effects of large projects. Satellite map data is also useful for mapping outcrops and regolith systematics and covering vegetation through research blocks and geographical areas.</p><p></p><p>Satellite data services can also benefit geologists, scientists, and exploration managers from the multiple bands that satellites carry that allow them to interpret wavelengths that cannot be seen by the human eye. Near-infrared, short-wave infrared and thermal infrared can be used to identify differences in the structural features of the earth's surface. Multispectral imaging and thematic analysis allow researchers to capture reflective data and the absorption properties of dirt, rock, and vegetation. This data can also be used by professional photogeologists to view surface lithologies, to distinguish clays, oxides, and soil types from satellite imagery.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Geographic Information Systems(GIS)</strong></h3><p>The Geographic Information System or GIS is a system that provides a fundamentally new way of creating and utilizing the maps required to navigate our cities and industries. GIS produces intelligent super maps from which complex planning and analysis can be carried out at the click of a button. Satellite Imaging Corporation (SIC) integrates orthorectified satellite imagery with derived vector data and client-provided geospatial data to produce single, GIS data-rich maps for numerous industrial uses, including agriculture, emergency prevention, energy, and environmental monitoring.</p><p></p><p>Satellite data services incorporate GIS data to achieve a multi-layer result for many types of analysis and management related to a project. The expertise and accuracy of GIS mapping services prevent almost all potential problems associated with GIS maps. Through utilizing machine learning, neural network algorithms and satellite remote sensing techniques, automated extraction of objects observed on satellite imagery will speed up and minimize the cost of, for example, tracking and counting animals, detection of solar panel installations on commercial and residential buildings, detection of related objects in form or materials or other suitable applications.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Here's how user-friendly satellite data can revolutionize development:</strong></h2><p>Satellite imagery can offer valuable data that complement conventional data collection mechanisms, such as censuses and surveys. This can provide valuable insights on disaster response, track deforestation by calculating the evolution of forest cover over time, and help urban development by monitoring urban growth.</p><p></p><p>However, despite the increased accessibility of satellite data, converting it into accessible knowledge also needs significant skills and resources. Although recent advances in data analytics have enabled some analysis to become computerized and automated, such practices have yet to be implemented on a scale by the construction industry. Nevertheless, if the processing burden for any individual country is removed, the data can be incorporated much more easily within the country, the national system, and processes.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Making satellite data ‘analysis-ready’</strong></h3><p>Satellite images have to be processed before they are ready for analysis. One specific technique, for example, is to eliminate cloud cover from photographs by replacing contaminated pixels with clean ones. Another is to remove the haziness that may occur as a result of atmospheric disturbances — a method referred to as "atmospheric correction."</p><p></p><p>To make satellite data more user-friendly, several vendors have started selling analysis-ready data or ARD data. The term applies to data that has already been stripped of any irregularities, in particular by utilizing algorithms — making it more available to companies who might not be willing to utilize it.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Bringing ARD to the development community</strong></h3><p>The Earth Observation organization has created tools to convert a large amount of satellite data into user-friendly formats. These include open-data cubes — open-source systems in which satellite databases are arranged by space and time coordinates. This helps end-users to watch the development of Earth data — such as plants, land usage, or water coverage — within time. In the context of sustainable development, this could mean having easy and quick access to monitoring the effects of climate change in a particular location or urbanization pattern where there are no census mechanisms in place.</p><p></p><p>ARDC has come to life as a result of previous discussions between the Global Partnership for Sustainable Development Data and partner countries. This exposed some of the obstacles that nations encountered when pursuing environmental growth locally, including the time required to process satellite results. In order to promote the adoption of new practices across the different government agencies responsible for data handling, ARDC carries out a range of skill development initiatives, including training.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Conclusion</strong></h2><p>The satellite data services market is expected to grow at substantial rates over the forecast period. Major progress in geospatial imagery analysis combined with the implementation of AI and big data, privatization of the space industry, and the growing demand for small earth observation satellites are driving the market.</p><p></p><p><strong>Free Valuable Insights:</strong> <a href="https://www.kbvresearch.com/news/satellite-data-services-market/">Global Satellite Data Services Market to reach a market size of USD 16.2 billion by 2026</a></p><p></p><p>As in the case of satellite data services to revolutionize growth, the Earth observation industry is still young and developing. Despite technical developments in fields such as machine learning that the pace at which data can be analyzed, the full potential of Earth observation data has yet to be explored. And as the number of users and products grows, ARD may ultimately develop a number of standards that reflect growing types of user needs and requirements.</p></div>How Has Telecom API Revolutionized the Telecommunications Industryhttps://globalriskcommunity.com/profiles/blogs/how-has-telecom-api-revolutionized-the-telecommunications2020-06-15T09:26:32.000Z2020-06-15T09:26:32.000ZKBV Researchhttps://globalriskcommunity.com/members/KBVResearch<div><p>The telecommunications industry is said to be reaching a turning point. Although revenues do not collapse, there is a significant slowdown in growth. Despite no emphasis on the implementation of innovative technologies, the bulk of communication service providers (CSPs) rely on the same established business and experience high consumer retention rates.</p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8028319264,original{{/staticFileLink}}" target="_blank"><img src="{{#staticFileLink}}8028319264,original{{/staticFileLink}}" class="align-center" alt="8028319264?profile=original" /></a></p><p></p><p><a href="https://www.kbvresearch.com/telecom-api-market/">Application programming interfaces (APIs)</a> have been used as a way to disclose various forms of data and resources and to enable diverse structures to interact effectively. There has, though, been a growing conceptual change about how APIs are viewed. They have moved beyond being a mere solution and are increasingly seen as products that can be leveraged to open up uniquely new revenue streams. This productization encourages user thought and reflects on who exactly are the users in any given API. And when these customers are categorized, they get three separate forms of APIs, with differing degrees of difficulty and RoI.</p><p></p><h2><strong>What is the Telecom API?</strong></h2><p>The Telecom API is a compilation of programming instructions and protocols that are used to navigate a web-based service. It is used for mobile applications and cloud-related telecommunications software such as email, banking, location sharing, identity management, webRTC, and others. </p><p></p><p>The Telecom API provides enhanced features to existing applications by improving their performance and providing time-consuming and cost-effective solutions. This results in better user service and the creation of new software systems. However, stringent government policies and regulations are one of the restricting factors that could theoretically impede the development of the telecommunications API industry in the forecast era.</p><p></p><h2><strong>How can APIs help telecom operators?</strong></h2><h3><strong>Developing New Services</strong></h3><p>API gateways are the most efficient way of accessing and using information assets stored across legacy systems. Telecom operators have a huge amount of user data, and APIs are the most secure way to expose this data to the development of new services on a scale.</p><p></p><p>This will be true for both B2C and B2B systems. Since telecom operators offer connectivity to all kinds of services, this can be the unified access to all of these. One-step access to all apps would be a major convenience for users and would also improve data security. And this would strengthen the collaboration of telecommunications companies with other service providers.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Monetizing Network Assets</strong></h3><p>Telecom providers have a range of key assets that are being utilized for OTT companies. APIs provide a way to combine these network assets to build different business models. The network built by CSPs is their greatest advantage and the cornerstone to OTT 's ability to provide value to consumers.</p><p></p><p>APIs can help to monetize this asset efficiently and create variable charging models for different types of OTT services. They may be paid based on the frequency of usage, amount of transactions, or other personalized types, as applicable; and they are controlled by the Telecom APIs. With the increase in interconnected device ecosystems, telecommunications operators have a huge market just waiting to be leveraged.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Revolutionary trends in telecom API: </strong></h2><h3><strong>Start-ups in emerging markets and increasing adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT)</strong></h3><p>Mobile operators are the key enablers of the internet economy in developing economies. The Telecom Operator APIs is a strong platform for unlocking innovation and improving the start-up ecosystem. The collection of APIs provided by operators provides a strong innovation process because start-ups have the opportunity and versatility to merge a variety of APIs to build new services. </p><p></p><p>Startups providing SMS- based localized content to their customers depending on their city will utilize three operator APIs simultaneously: SMS, venue, and direct operator billing. Startups and entrepreneurs in developing markets building mobile networks using APIs are also a major opportunity for telecom APIs.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Telecom API and Artificial Intelligence</strong></h3><p>Although many Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies will be incorporated in many fields (such as systems, apps, semiconductors, etc.), AI will also be directly aligned with end-users, providing an incentive for CSPs to provide technical support for multiple AI-enabled use cases.</p><p> </p><p>This would provide simple support for AI, such as user authentication, as well as more sophisticated features, such as the detection of resource usage and activities within closed user groups such as company coordination teams. The Telecom API industry is developing to support the AIoT industry, as CSP APIs will allow IoT authentication and AI will provide the means for machine learning as well as behavior detection algorithms to secure IoT devices and networks from possible damage.</p><p></p><h3><strong>5G and APIs</strong></h3><p>With the introduction of 5G, connectivity infrastructure APIs might play a key role in the growth of vertical and cross-vertical business applications. Open APIs are essential to the development of next-generation application technologies. The Global System for Mobile Communications Association (GSMA) APIs is leading the way in defining the Telecom API specifications. Open APIs allow operators to distinguish the interface specification from the API operations and allow APIs to be used in certain cases.</p><p></p><p>The key quantifiable advantages include a dramatic decrease in partner on-board time from a few months to hours, as well as new sales opportunities generated by developer portals. Software Development Kit (SDK) is a series of bundled software development tools that allow developers to build applications for a particular computing setting, computing architecture, or hardware platform (i.e., computer system, video game console, operating system, or related development model). SDKs are gradually targeting CPaaS-based network platforms.</p><p></p><h2><strong>To sum up</strong></h2><p>The position of Programmable Telecom and APIs is expanding to help more and more than consumer-oriented communications, software, exchange, and digital content. This evolution extends beyond the support of APIs for B2C and B2B networks for conventional telecommunications applications. It plays a greater position for network service providers in smart business applications as well as Internet of Things (IoT) platforms and networks.</p><p></p><p><strong>Free Valuable Insights:</strong> <a href="https://www.kbvresearch.com/news/telecom-api-market/">Global Telecom API Market to reach a market size of USD 369.1 billion by 2026</a></p><p></p><p>Infrastructure and software vendors create new and special positions within the programmable telecom industry by positioning themselves as enablers of emerging business models between carriers, content providers, and application developers. Carriers are migrating a variety of services to the cloud to take advantage of their data. It involves information such as the location of subscribers, service expectations, and billing relationships, both of which facilitate and improve the development of optimized apps that incorporate the features of service provider networks with web-based capabilities.</p></div>All About Pediatric Imaging: From Modalities To Applications And Trendshttps://globalriskcommunity.com/profiles/blogs/all-about-pediatric-imaging-from-modalities-to-applications-and2020-06-03T12:35:53.000Z2020-06-03T12:35:53.000ZKBV Researchhttps://globalriskcommunity.com/members/KBVResearch<div><p>The efficacy of <a href="https://www.kbvresearch.com/pediatric-imaging-market/">pediatric imaging</a> devices in producing high-quality pictures, combining clinical information, and accurately evaluating the symptoms of the part of the imaged body continues to affect their sales.</p><p></p><p><a href="{{#staticFileLink}}8028323300,original{{/staticFileLink}}" target="_blank"><img src="{{#staticFileLink}}8028323300,original{{/staticFileLink}}" class="align-center" alt="8028323300?profile=original" /></a></p><p></p><p>Throughout the first half of the projected period, demand for x-ray systems will remain high. Ultrasound adoption of pediatric radiology products is expected to increase traction. Developments in the pediatric radiology industry are expected to witness a rapid boost with the contribution of ultrasound systems and devices.</p><p></p><h2><strong>What is pediatric imaging?</strong></h2><p>Pediatric radiology is a subspecialty of radiology involving the imaging of fetuses, infants, adolescent children, and young adults. Most pediatric radiologists are working in children's hospitals. Although some diseases seen in pediatrics are the same as in adults, many conditions can only be seen in infants.</p><p></p><p>The specialty has to take into account the dynamics of the growing body, from preterm infants to large adolescents, where the organs follow growth patterns and phases. These require special imaging and treatment at the Children's Hospital, which has all the infrastructure necessary to treat children and their specific pathologies.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Modalities of pediatric imaging:</strong></h2><h3><strong>Computed Tomography (CT)</strong></h3><p>Computed tomography (CT or CAT scan) is a diagnostic medical examination that uses X-ray instruments and computers to generate accurate cross-section images of the body. A computerized tomography (CT) scan provides clear images of the inside of the organs, tissues, blood vessels, and other things not seen in regular X-rays. It is also used to diagnose other diseases and to plan treatments.</p><p></p><p>CT scans for children can be used to diagnose causes of abdominal pain, assess trauma injuries, diagnose and monitor cancer response, and diagnose and monitor infectious or inflammatory disorders. Pediatric CT scans can also be conducted to test blood vessels all over the body.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)</strong></h3><p>Pediatric Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) uses a strong magnetic field, radio waves and a device to make precise images of the interior of the child's body. MRI can be used to help diagnose or track recovery for a variety of conditions in the brain, chest, abdomen, pelvis, and extremities. MRI is used to help treat a wide variety of disorders in children due to injuries, illness, or congenital abnormalities.</p><p></p><p>In some instances, MR imaging of the body's soft tissue structures — such as the heart, liver, and many other organs — is more likely to identify and precisely characterize diseases than other imaging methods. This insight makes MRI an invaluable tool for early diagnosis and evaluation of multiple focal lesions and tumors. MRI is useful in the treatment of a wide variety of diseases, including cancer, heart and vascular disease, and muscular and bone disorders.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Ultrasound</strong></h3><p>A pediatric abdominal ultrasound uses sound waves to create images of the interior of the body. It does not use radiation and has no known adverse effect. This is also helpful for determining the causes of abdominal, pelvic, or scrotal pain in children. Pediatric ultrasound imaging is a non-invasive diagnostic test that helps doctors to diagnose and treat medical problems.</p><p></p><p>Ultrasound is safe and painless. It produces photos of the interior of the body using sound waves. Ultrasound imaging is sometimes referred to as ultrasound screening or sonography. It uses a thin probe called a transducer and a gel that is placed directly on the skin. High-frequency sound waves pass from the probe to the body through the gel. The sound that bounces back is collected by the probe. The computer uses sound waves to create an image.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Applications that are actively adopting pediatric imaging technology:</strong></h2><h3><strong>Cardiology</strong></h3><p>Cardiac imaging plays a crucial role in the proper diagnosis of pediatric congenital heart disease (CHD). Traditionally, echocardiography and catheter angiography is used to delineate heart anatomy. CT and MRI scans offer a non-invasive form of measuring cardiovascular pathology and can be used in combination with echocardiography for diagnosis and recovery preparation of CHD. These modalities can better portray morphology and the relationship to surrounding structures than echocardiography, especially in the case of complex congenital defects.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Oncology</strong></h3><p>Radiological tests of children with cancer offer knowledge critical to patient care during treatment and follow-up. This information includes, in the first place, the diagnosis of neoplasia, the assessment of disease severity and distribution, the detection of treatment-related toxicity, the assessment of disease response to medication, and the creation of clinical trial protocols. Over recent years, there has been a shift in the approach to the care of certain childhood malignancies, with a growing focus on the elimination of medication-related complications and late effects.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Gastroenterology</strong></h3><p>Imaging contributes significantly to the assessment, diagnosis, and follow-up of pediatric gastrointestinal (GI) problems. Children really are not just small adults, and the wide range of unique imaging features of pediatric problems must be recognized.</p><p></p><p>The imaging techniques used to evaluate pediatric patients with GI symptoms are significantly different from those used in adults. Where radiation-requiring imaging modalities are chosen, the "as low as reasonably achievable" (ALARA) principle will often be followed to mitigate radiation exposure.</p><p></p><h2><strong>Emerging trends in pediatric imaging technology</strong></h2><h3><strong>Cross-discipline collaboration within departments</strong></h3><p>In order to provide optimal care, the industry has become increasingly dependent on working with other specialists, giving radiologists the ability to take the lead in managing cross-disciplinary workflows. Since radiology is one of the most IT-skilled disciplines in the healthcare industry, there will be no problems for radiologists applying integrated diagnostics using digital technology. Given that pathologists are heading toward digital image analysis, a more systematic cross-collaboration phase is on the way.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Adoption of digital health technology to improve patient access</strong></h3><p>Digital-native physician’s rise would have a significant effect on health care and patient experiences, putting evolving health technologies under pressure to deliver on higher standards. Improving efficiency, sustainability, and patient quality are at the center of primary healthcare.</p><p></p><p>Public health care's three pillars are primary care and basic roles of public health as the foundation of decentralized health systems, multisectoral strategy, and action and empowering people and communities. All kinds of new tools have become important primary care services and their adoption is increasing, with the last decade seeing rapid convergence of technology in a number of fields that support primary care and critical public health functions.</p><p></p><h3><strong>Hyperautomation</strong></h3><p>Hyperautomation refers to the use of computers for automating activities. Through implementing new technology, such as machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), procedures that traditionally involved humans can now be accomplished through automation. This technology can be used to automate a number of tools, which are essential because a single tool cannot successfully replace a human being.</p><p></p><p>One way to effectively leverage hyper-automation, for example, is through better streamlining and automating patient communication, such as automated text messaging. By using this process, patients will provide real-time, encrypted notifications with information relevant to their appointments, alerts on when the scan results are available, and more.</p><p></p><h2><strong>To sum up</strong></h2><p>Technological advances — in conjunction with creative thinking — have contributed to changes in the radiology industry in the past few years, which have given tremendous benefits to both radiologists and patients. These solutions enable radiologists to deliver higher quality services faster than ever before, while also helping to prevent burn-out at work in the industry. Medical and public health advances have brought in dramatic changes in the epidemiology of health conditions in infants, children, and youth since the early twentieth century.</p><p></p><p><strong>Free Valuable Insights:</strong> <a href="https://www.kbvresearch.com/news/pediatric-imaging-market/">Global Pediatric Imaging Market to reach a market size of USD 10.9 billion by 2026</a></p><p></p><p>Infectious diseases have significantly decreased, and survival rates have drastically increased for children with cancer, congenital heart disease, leukemia, and other illnesses. Yet serious health problems and illnesses in children and youth have gradually grown over the past fifty years, mainly from four types of medical diseases: diabetes, obesity, mental health conditions, and neurodevelopmental disorders. Current payment arrangements, which are also predominantly fee-for-service, often provide limited incentives to promote these innovations in practice.</p></div>
