Nature:Learn in depth about nature.
Today, we are able to collect a lot of data about the natural world from the land, sea, sky, and from space. This kind of data collection is made possible thanks to advanced sensors and networking technologies. Places that cannot be accessed or atmospheric conditions that cannot be seen by the naked eyes can be captured in real time by using satellite communications and the Internet.
The environmental information provided today is much more detailed and accurate thanks to high-performance computer information processing technologies that allow high-volume data to be processed quickly and accurately. For example, advanced image processing now allows us to simulate changes in the environment over time or for different regions and visually confirm environmental destruction using 3D images or video. This environmental data can be used in many fields to reduce environmental impact, and is also expected to breathe new life into the agriculture and fishery industries.
- Collect environmental information using advanced sensing technologies.
- Provide information beyond time and space using ICT.
- Use simulations widely so that environmental data can be used constructively by as many people as possible.
- Help the agriculture and fishery industries while protecting the environment.
Monitoring the natural environment
NEC has many proven technologies for monitoring the natural environment, such as high-accuracy sensing technologies that enable water, atmosphere, and soil monitoring, compact and long-life storage battery development technologies, and the satellite technologies used for the Kaguya and Ibuki satellites. We will continue to improve the quality of the information we provide on the natural environment through ICT. Our monitoring technologies also let us provide solutions for corporate environmental information management and specific chemical substance management.
Providing simulation technology services
In the past, high-performance computers and advanced expertise were required to conduct simulations, which restricted their widespread use. NEC provides simulation services by using parallel computation programming technologies, high performance computing (HPC) technologies, and cloud computing.
