Fugro expands with EOMAP takeover
Fugro has acquired EOMAP, a leading provider of satellite Earth observation (EO) technology for mapping and monitoring marine and freshwater environments.
This acquisition is a key element of Fugro’s strategy to expand its presence in the water market by integrating EO technology into its existing mapping solutions.
“This acquisition is a big step forward, enhancing our capabilities in the water market and allowing us to better serve our clients with satellite EO technology,” said Robert Hoddenbach, Fugro’s global director climate & nature.
Established in 2006, EOMAP holds several patented algorithms and is well-positioned in the growing mapping market.
The partnership between Fugro and EOMAP has already proven successful in projects such as the ISPRA Seagrass Coastal Restoration initiative and the COASTS project.
“We are excited to join forces with Fugro, a company that shares our values and commitment to leveraging advanced technologies for a safe and liveable world,” said Thomas Heege, managing director of EOMAP.
Fugro says the acquisition will enhance its climate change mitigation efforts across the world, including ongoing projects in Italy, Europe and the Maldives.
EOMAP recorded a revenue of around €5 million in 2024.
