This is indeed the case with certain of the fields being covered by Geoinformatics - wich often require the use of high-resolution imagery. However, over the last ten years, the U.K. has, in fact, become much more active in terms of conducting Earth Observation (EO) from space. Mostly this has been concerned with environnmental mapping and monitoring on a regional or global scale. Essentially the emphasis in the U.K. has been on the acquisition of imagery having a wide spatial coverage and rather coarse (large) ground pixel sizes, mostly for use by the environmental science community. Beside this activity, the U.K. has developped a leading position in the design, development, construction and operation of micro-and mini-satellites. This has attracted widespread attention, especilly from developing space nations wishing to acquire a national capabnility of Earth Observation (EO) from space. Copyright Geoinformatics.
