GeoEDGE has taken a step ahead in the Sri Lankan market to providing satellite images with the engagement of providing high-resolution satellite imaginary of Advanced Land Observing Satellite-2 “DAICHI-2” (ALOS-2) and Advanced Land Observing Satellite “DAICHI” (ALOS) launched by Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA). The agreement was signed with the licensed agency of JAXA products distribution and sales partner, Remote Sensing Technology Center of Japan (RESTEC) on the 1st of November 2016.
ALOS-2 provides High resolutions data (3 to 10m with 50 t0 70 km swath) under the several observation modes such as Spotlight, Stripmap, and ScanSAR with different processing levels and formats. The mission objectives of ALOS – 2 is Disaster Monitoring, Land and Agricultural Monitoring, Natural Resource Exploration, Global Forest Monitoring and Maritime Safety etc.
The mission objectives of the ALOS are regional observation, disaster monitoring, and resource surveying. It captures data using three types of sensors such as PRISM, AVNIR-2 and PALSAR.
AW3D provides the world’s first 5m resolution DEM covering all global land spaces on the shelf and provides a higher resolution 3D map with Digital Globe’s satellite imagery. AW3D has a variety of lineup with 0.5m – 5m resolution of DSM/DTM. Customization for user’s requirements can be applied flexibly. AW3D has been used for a wide range of applications over 73 countries. It is used for disaster prevention, urban planning, engineering, natural resources, the environment, etc.

The system based on GeoDjango web framework and Iconic mobile framework with several dependencies necessary for the communication with Geospatial servers and develop charts & reports. On the left side is the list of entities of the web application and on right side is list of entities of the mobile app. Both applications use the same postgraySQL database. In the proposed system component architecture has provisions for the existing Geo Spatial Data systems integration.
The CfR system addressed the issue of the existing communication system to communicate with general public to report disaster pre, present and post incidents. As well as, needs to have a system for authorities to verify reported incident of disasters. The developed system consists of web and mobile application to report incidents, crowd source mobile applications to capture pre-disaster information and authorities to verify the reported incidents. System also has a web GIS integrated component for analyzing, display and manipulating reports, charts and maps.
