Making the best use of satellite data for agriculture
SpaceSense is a leading provider of advanced satellite insights. We bring tremendous value to agriculture with our unique strengths.
Our expertise
of working with all types of satellite data, optical or radar
Our approach
of applying AI to a mixture of satellite data and ground truth data in an automated way
Our integration
process is the easiest in the market for all products
Monitoring more accurately using AI
The use of AI enables us to build innovative and accurate satellite solutions. Through this method we stop relying purely on agronomic models which are very efficient but limited in scope, and we start using the available agricultural ground data to build new solutions on the run.
With AI, we create solutions customized to each of our customers in a matter of days. We use their local data to adapt our solutions to their crops, climate and needs to ensure that the built solution has the highest accuracy and provides them with a unique competitive advantage.
How we use AI to revolutionize satellite data for agriculture
Defeating the clouds by using radar images
The use of AI enables us to build innovative and accurate satellite solutions. Through this method we stop relying purely on agronomic models which are very efficient but limited in scope, and we start using the available agricultural ground data to build new solutions on the run.
We achieved it by using radar images.
Unlike “traditional” optical images, radar images can see through clouds and can even provide images at night! The drawback is that this technology is hard to use and most of our competition doesn’t have the knowledge to use it. At SpaceSense we made it one of our strengths, and most of our solutions are radar-based, or will soon be!
Providing simple solutions at scale
One challenge often underestimated in satellite imagery for agriculture is the ability to provide it at scale. This scalability relies on details like file conversions, notifications or the time to delivery, but they are the difference between a good and a bad product.
This also heavily impacts the integration duration and complexity, which can create hidden costs for the customer.
We process millions of fields every day, using terabytes of satellite imagery. We have advanced customisation options which give our customers the possibility to get exactly the data they need, at the right time. And we hide all of this complexity behind the simplest API designed for satellite imagery.
It’s quick to integrate, simple to understand and can be done in a matter of days.
