Scotland's international influence is highlighted in this podcast, in which Dr Murray Collins and Kim McAllister talk to Steven Ramage from GEO and Professor Tughrul Arslan from the University of Edinburgh.
Glaswegian Steve is based in France, works in Geneva and coordinates earth observation programmes across the world which use data from space to inform high level decision makers.
Professor Tughrul Arslan discusses smart platforms and his work in engineering, including working on the Mars rover and setting up five companies.
