The final event of the ESA PECS in Hungary was held on 8th October organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the European Space Agancy (ESA). The office of the ESA PECS had started more than 120 projects, and from these projects were selected 30 to be presented at the event. GeoData Ltd. participated at the event with the project MODE-EO (Market-Oriented Dissemination of European Earth Observation Technology Chain), which was presented by Dr. Fülöp Györk.

The conference of the Hungarian Electrotechnical Association was held in September 2018, and some of the coworkers of the GeoData Ltd. participated in the event. The main theme of the conference was the Clean Energy. During the conference one of the projects of GeoData Ltd. was also introduced.

GeoData Ltd. moved to a new business center, so our office is working now in the Central Udvar business center at the following address: Wesselényi Street 16, H-1077 Budapest, on the 8th floor.

GeoData Ltd. participated the conference of E-utilities, which was organized by Lechner Tudásközpont and held in the Hotel Park Inn by Radisson. The aim of the conference was to get to know the experiences and the challenges of the new, electronic utility registration system, which is operating from 1st of July, and to make proposals for developing the system. During the morning plenary sessions were taken place, and workshops were also organized for the participants. Our colleague, Gábor Füstös gave also a presentation in the conference about the data service.

In December 2016, GeoData Services has been certified as meeting the requirements of ISO 27001, thus a new integrated management system was introduced , which aim is to ensure the application of the international standards of the quality management system (ISO 9001), as well as the information security management system (ISO 27001).

From the beginning of July SI Imaging Services (SIIS) have started the commercial selling of the KOMPSAT-3A satellite data.  The KOMPSAT-3A was launched in March 2015 joining the KOMPSAT satellite family (KOMPSAT-2, KOMPSAT-3, KOMPSAT-5) and it grants an outstanding very high resolution data of 40 cm.

The free Geomatica licences have been started to be distributed to the universities for fall semester of 2016-17. There was a high interest about the Canadian PCI Inc. and the GeoData Ltd. offered free licence option: instructors and researchers of 12 universities and colleges were included in the program, which begins in this fall semester. During the summer the instructors and researchers can get knowledge of the software functionality with the handovered licences, and also they can work out how Geomatica can be used  in Earth observation (EO) & GIS education and research.

GeoData Services as authorised reseller of Canadian PCI Geomatica products agreed with the Markham based company that Hungarian universities can use Geomatica free licenses for their curriculum based higher education and Phd research. PCI Geomatica is the professional toolkit of the aerial and satellite images and data, and the related raster and vector operations. Now the newest desktop, server and cloud solutions will be available for the Hungarian universities.

With the support of the on-going project of Eureka (EUREKA_HU_12-1-2012-0042) GeoData Services increase the abilities to do on-site field work. Fulfilling the growing request of our home and foreign customers to do on-the-spot checks and rapid field visits, our company (together with partners) is capable to perform under many conditions: four-wheel drive vehicles with summer and winter outfit, toughbooks and toughpads help our colleagues to work in several locations parallel.
