Bathymetry maps derived with satellite-based multispectral sensors have been used extensively for environmental and engineering coastal studies and monitoring. However, so far this technique has not been widely exploited in other coastal applications, such as underwater archaeology. Submerged settlements and shipwrecks are often located in water depths where the application of multispectral satellite data is feasible. This could lead to more efficient field work practices thus enabling more optimal allocations of costs and labour during archaeological excavations. This study explores the contribution of processed satellite bathymetry maps to the recording of two archaeological coastal sites: a submerged prehistoric settlement in Greece and a shipwreck of a modern cargo vessel in Italy. The results indicate that even though the accuracy of satellite derived bathymetry is high, the level of detail (spatial resolution) is not sufficient to fully replace field-based measurements. However, the use of satellite data complements the existing techniques and can help to place the archaeological sites within a broader spatial context as well as to efficiently monitor the deterioration of a site due to natural causes or human activity, which inevitably leads to risk management. When the study of larger objects is involved (for example First World War shipwrecks) the potential of using satellite data in underwater archaeological studies becomes more promising.

The City of Gdansk use satellite data for property tax assessment and collection. The data is provided by the SatRevolution S.A. company. This commentary briefly describes the mechanism of cooperation and the result (in the form of increased revenue from the tax). This is practice worthy of in-depth analysis and exploitation.

Miasto Gdańsk wykorzystuje dane satelitarne przy wymiarze i poborze podatku od nieruchomości. Danych dostarcza firma SatRevolution S.A. W niniejszym komentarzu zwięźle opisano mechanizm współpracy oraz rezultat (w postaci zwiększenia dochodu ze wspomnianego podatku). To praktyka warta pogłębionej analizy i wykorzystania.

Among current global threats, the risk of developing an emergency requires a comprehensive approach from all entities involved in crisis management. Despite the advanced technologies available to predict each threat, taking appropriate countermeasures is often impossible. Often the best solution is to prepare in advance and act efficiently after the occurrence of a given threat event. It is also crucial to implement the latest methods and solutions that allow for better preparation and response in case of an emergency. This article presents the results of the analysis of the use of modern satellite systems aimed at, among others, improving security in the event of armed conflicts and crises. This perspective is written for two reasons. Foremost is to present the potential of the existing Polish security system, which aims to reduce the risks and minimise the problems of crisis management associated with natural disasters. Secondly, to foster a discussion and create a basis for exchanging information and advances within the countries implementing similar solutions. It is especially crucial in joint actions with neighbouring countries in case of emergencies and disasters in border areas.

A new challenge has arisen before administrative authorities and courts – the issue of admissibility and reliability of satellite images in the context of evidence proceedings. From the analysis of the provisions of the laws and the judicial case law, it appears that satellite images can be treated as unnamed evidence, the reliability of which is subject to the discretionary assessment of the authority or the court

Przed organami i sądami administracyjnymi pojawiło się nowe wyzwanie – kwestia oceny dopuszczalności i wiarygodności zdjęć satelitarnych w ramach postępowania dowodowego. Z analizy przepisów ustaw oraz orzecznictwa sądowego wynika, że zdjęcia satelitarne mogą być traktowane jako dowód nienazwany, którego wiarygodność podleca swobodnej ocenie organu lub sądu.
