Adding UAV support for Swedish Defence Forces

23 August 2010

Spacemetric has received an order from system integrator SAAB to add support for video imagery within the image management system developed for the JAS 39 Gripen multi-role combat aircraft in service with the Swedish Air Force.

The new contract supports the provision of functions for video imagery from the Shadow 200 tactical Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). This will extend the capabilities of the existing Sensor Source Intelligence Cell (SSIC) through the addition of a video server with real-time video review and map display, and video geometric enhancement. The SSIC's image management solution is based upon Spacemetric's Keystone system and provides an integrated multi-sensor environment for data from air and space assets.

The new UAV will be deployed in support of Sweden's commitments to the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Afghanistan. By building upon technology already delivered for Gripen, the image management system can be highly capable, while being provided to a short delivery schedule.
