AZERBAIJAN
The national space agency, the Azerbaijan National Aerospace
Agency (ANASA), had been involved, since 1975, in various
aspects of the Soviet space programme. The main thrust areas
in its national space programme are the use of satellite
and airborne remote sensing and GIS technologies to study
natural resources and the environmental and ecological problems
facing the country, with special focus on the Caspian Sea.
ANASA is also engaged in developing software for date processing
and thematic mapping, as well as designing airborne information
measurement systems comprising sensor and control subsystems. |
