GAF AG has won the European Association of Remote Sensing Companies’ (EARSC) Company Achievement Award for 2015.

The award reflects the contributions made by GAF over the last 30 years, having grown from a small university spin-off to a European leader in the sector. The company now has more than 200 staff and an annual turnover of close to €30 million. Its track record comprises more than 1000 projects in over 100 countries on 4 continents.

Selection of the winner took place in a two-stage procedure: EARSC members were first asked to nominate companies and subsequently vote to obtain a selection of five candidates. The final selection was then done by an independent international jury of renowned experts in the field of Earth observation.
