SOMAG AG Jena

The company develops and manufactures these platforms for data acquisition and monitoring applications on land, at sea and in the air. Their great strength is that they can compensate for movements in all three spatial axes in near real time. The integrated vibration isolation rings reduce high-frequency vibrations that occur during flight, for example. This guarantees high-resolution image quality, stabilizes turbulence, and thus reduces the risk of blurred images or data gaps, ensuring better utilization of flight time at lower cost. In short, they guarantee high-quality and economical data acquisition.

Since its foundation, SOMAG has placed great emphasis on permanent product development and regularly expands its portfolio, boasting over 20 years of expertise in the fields of mechanics, electronics and software. In contrast to other suppliers who only sell stabilization systems as add-on products, SOMAG's specialization enables it to respond much more flexibly to customer requirements and specific applications. The company's customers include commercial enterprises, government agencies, defense organizations and research institutions.

One example: together with its partners at IGI and ESG, SOMAG developed a customized GSM 4000 - the GSM 4000 Open Skies has since been installed on board an Airbus A 319 OH, one of the world's most modern observation aircraft.

Airborne equipment for airborne applications can be used in a variety of ways, such as topographic mapping, as-built documentation in route planning, digital terrain or vegetation elevation models, or flying after natural disasters for damage assessment. The naval and land assets, on the other hand, are designed for collision avoidance of unmanned systems, protection of ships and frigates, drone defense, or video and image capture for film and television, among other applications.
