Telemetry and data transmision Q

I am bidding on some jobs and I know that there has to be a Pelican with this field of expertise....

Let's say I am going to be flying geological surveying missions and want to transmit the onboard camera data back to a ground based receiver. To me, this sounds no more complicated than what the news choppers do.

What I would like to know is

(a) is that transmission somehow encrypted to prevent intercept by unintended persons?

(b) what is the range capability? The contract I am bidding on specifies a MINIMUM of 200 miles transmit capability. That seems like a big power requirement to me.

Airplane will be a Cessna 208B, so there is a capability of hauling a large amount of equipment.

What are some recommended sites and resources for me to check out?
