Azercosmos has signed a new partnership deal with the Civil Aviation Authority of Botswana (CAAB) deepening its reach into Africa. Under this long-term agreement, the Botswana government agency will utilize data services provided via the Azerspace-1 telecommunication satellite. The two organizations announced the deal, August 8.
This marks the inaugural provision of satellite data services to Botswana via the African C-band coverage on the Azerspace-1 satellite. The CAAB is responsible for the regulation and development of air transport, providing air navigation services, managing airports and advising the government on all aspects of civil aviation.
Azercosmos currently supplies satellite services to nearly half of the 13 countries in Southern Africa. This collaboration with Botswana will enhance the deployment of Azerspace satellite services in large-scale data projects across the region.
