Satellite Applications Catapult to expand its Living Labs network

Following the successful launch of the Agri and Health Living Labs in July 2022, the UK’s Satellite Applications Catapult is expanding its national Living Labs network with a new Environmental Living Lab in the South West. The Environmental Living Lab will enable the space sector to collaborate with the agriculture and environmental sectors, demonstrating the economic benefits of satellite-enabled technologies across real-world environments within agriculture, horticulture, animal husbandry, aquaculture, and the management of woodlands and other habitats. The project is funded by key partners, the Heartof the South West Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP), which is supporting the Satellite Applications Catapult to set up the project’s facilities and kick-start trials and demonstrations of sustainable agricultural and environmental technology. www.sa.catapult.org.uk/living-lab
