  1. Satellite Communication and Forest Protection • The Use and Application of Satellite Communications in Forest Protection

  2. Satellite Communication and Forest Protection • Topics For Today's Discussion • Why Use Satellite Communications? • What Types of Devices are Available and What are the typical uses for these devices in Forest Protection today? • What are the Typical Costs of Satellite Communications? • Questions for you to Answer about utilising communications in Forest Protection • What Does the Future Hold for Satellite Communications

  3. Satellite Communication and Forest Protection • Advantages of Satellite Communications • Remote Capabilities Satellite communication does not require any ground infrastructure such as towers etc. for communications • Device Variety Large variety of devices from hand held phones to small earth stations providing differing levels of connectivity for different purposes

  4. Satellite Communication and Forest Protection • Availability Most satellite systems designed to provide connectivity with a high degree of availability. (No busy signal) For Emergency Use Connectivity is excellent where other networks will get congested • Can Supply Point to Multi Point and Point to Point Connectivity Multiple users can listen to each other as a group / broadcast the same information to several remotes

  5. Satellite Communication and Forest Protection • Portable From hand held / pick up / airplane/ helicopter • Can tie in Radio Networks Can provide extended radio network connectivity either temporarily or permanently

  6. Satellite Communication and Forest Protection • Communication solution for Aircraft and Helicopters • Can offer high bandwidth in remote locations Satellite can meet high bandwidth requirements almost anywhere in Canada in a short time frame
