observation

Precisely for your world!

Anyone who monitors land areas, manages resources or assesses environmental changes needs data and tools they can rely on.

Our focus

At EFTAS, we have been doing exactly that since 1988: remote sensing analyses, bespoke GeoIT applications and large-scale in-situ data collection. For complex analyses of our environment: from municipal digital twins to international monitoring projects.

Our aim

To accelerate our clients’ environmental and spatial decisions and provide a foundation they can trust.

Our expertise in your fields.

From agriculture and nature conservation to local planning and georesources – every application has its own specific requirements in terms of data and methods.
We understand these requirements from real-world experience and use remote sensing and GeoIT to develop tailored solutions that actually work within your specific context.

Solutions & Services

Everything to do with remote sensing!

Our GeoIT solutions are designed to work seamlessly together:
Data acquisition and analysis, software development and strategic consulting are not separate disciplines, but part of one integrated process — from aerial and satellite imagery to practical, ready-to-use applications.

Geodata, analysis
& acquisition

Reliable analyses begin with reliable data. We collect and process geodata from remote sensing and field surveys to reveal changes across space and time.

We are
EFTAS

Since 1988, we have been working at the intersection of geoinformation, remote sensing and IT from our base in Münster, Germany.
What sets us apart goes far beyond technology: the breadth of expertise within our team. We bring together specialists from geoinformatics, agriculture, forestry, geosciences, environmental sciences, surveying, public administration and many other fields.
Anyone who asks us a technical question relating to their own field of application will receive an answer that not only provides data but also takes the specialist context into account
