Geospatial Risk Analysis

By integrating Earth Observation (EO) data with local human intelligence, media- and open-source intelligence, and AI-driven geospatial risk analytics, we deliver actionable insights into volatile contexts. These insights enable decision-makers to anticipate risks and make strategic decisions.

About us

PeaceEye delivers state-of-the-art solutions by harnessing Earth Observation (EO), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT), Human Intelligence (HumINT), and advanced analytics. We support private enterprises, media organizations, international bodies, policymakers, and NGOs, enabling strategic decision making for both commercial and humanitarian operations in volatile regions.

Our mission is to deliver a powerful insight tool for volatile regions, enhancing situational awareness and providing actionable intelligence to help stakeholders better understand conflict dynamics and risk factors. PeaceEye is committed to promoting peacebuilding and resilience, facilitating peaceful transitions, and preventing tensions from escalating. Aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD), we integrate diverse stakeholders and amplify the voices of those affected by conflict and geospatial risks.

To achieve this, our research and development efforts focus on advancing EO data integration, Natural Language Processing (NLP), and GeoAI to strengthen PeaceEye’s system architecture and impact.

Services

Situational Awareness

real-time information provided by verified local stakeholders.

Geospatial risk analysis

an end-to-end geospatial risk assessment platform.

Integrated Tailored Solutions

uniquely crafted fully, integrated solutions.

Support UN SDGs

solutions are crafted to support UN SDG and CSDDD.

Our partners PLUS/Z_GIS and the spin-off company Spatial Services have developed various geospatial and EO-based humanitarian services since 2011. The strong link between research and the market sector creates an ideal environment for developing and operationalising geospatial services. Based on these competencies, there are several services which can be developed with PeaceEye focusing on conflict mapping and peace building.

Emergency mapping

EO-based emergency mapping is invaluable in detecting changes, monitoring progress, and ensuring timely decisions during crises

Excess mortality and pandemics

Excess mortality through grave counting.

Disease control and vaccinations.

Conduct local risk assessments of specific diseases like malaria to support the management of disease outbreaks.

Damage assessment

Detection of destroyed buildings and infrastructure due to conflicts or a natural disaster to coordinate emergency plans.

Data for ground water exploration

EO data supports the identification of potential groundwater by analyzing indicators such as soil moisture and geological structures.

SAR analysis for all-weather-capabilities

A critical tool for environmental monitoring and emergency response in challenging weather scenarios.

Land cover for various applications

Land cover, topography and climate are included in environmental assessment.

Optical and SAR - Flood extent mapping

Mapping of flooded areas for assessing impact of flood on infrastructure, agriculture to plan recreation.

Camp mapping

Mapping of dwellings in IDP (internally displaced people)/refugee camps

Urban population estimation.

Mapping of city extent and long-term monitoring to detect urban sprawl. population estimation based on amount and type of dwellings/block

Vulnerability and resilience analysis

Assess vulnerability of population for planning of mitigation measures.

Geospatial Data

We integrate relevant spatial datasets from reputable sources into our processes  to gain actionable insights into each unique business case. ​

Earth-Observation data

Satellite data remains the single most important tool in large-scale environmental & and situational assessment monitoring. We leverage the very best in our processes.

Human Intelligence (HumINT) & Crowdsourcing

We gather reliable local human intelligence through a network of on-the-ground sources using our proprietary crowdsourcing application.

Geo-Social Media Intelligence & Web Scraping

We integrate real time openly-sourced news from media intelligence, and social media using natural Language Processing technologies.

Partners

PeaceEye consists of key partners including University of Salzburg-Z_GIS, Andreas Papp Consulting e.U., Spatial Services, GEOHUM, ESA and FFG.

EO for Africa Symposium 2024

23-26 September 2024, Italy

PeaceEye team had been attending EO for Africa Symposium at ESA ESRIN office in Frascati, Italy during 23-26 September 2024. The themes are;

  • Science into application and policy making
  • International/Development cooperation (AUC/EU/US/….)
  • EO at African Space Agency
  • Digital transformation and innovation
  • Data and tool exchange
  • Copernicus services use (products used in Africa)
  • EO private sector in Africa

PeaceEye project was presented focusing on predicting conflict through the integration of earth observation data and human intelligence. More details

peaceEye Workshop

10 October 2024, University of Salzburg
PeaceEye: Integrating geodata, composite indices and qualitative data from local stakeholders and experts. We invited people to present the PeaceEye concept and over 50 people were there plus a selected online audience. It is impressive that people who have founded satellite companies like Rapideye or a university of applied sciences are on board.

Next to the planned activities in South Sudan, one of the next steps is a dashboard and green hydrogen suitability index for Northern Africa combining physical, infrastructure, and socioeconomic factors.

Social vulnerability index: To identify communities at risk from large-scale energy projects. Political stability heat maps: Showing areas of higher/lower risk for project development.

While some of these datasets (like solar potential or infrastructure) are directly mappable, others (like political stability or social dynamics) may require creating proxy indicators or composite indices based on multiple data sources – this is a particular strengths of the many players of PeaceEye including GEOHUM and Spatial Services.
