Vexcel Corporation, a global company involved in Earth observation technologies and services, has announced development of a software-based solution to support offshore wind farm development across Europe. The project, funded by the UK Natural Environment Research Council, is being conducted by Vexcel’s UK office in cooperation with ARGOSS, a Netherlands company specialising in marine environmental information for offshore industries. The work will result in a commercial information service, based on Earth observation data, tailored to the coastal offshore environment.
