Research · Frontier
Research site and instrument services, observing networks that fill gaps in the global record, data with provenance from the first sample, and qualification so a result can be reproduced on another instrument. Needs: gaps in the global observing record, instrument uptime at remote sites, calibration traceability, data provenance and open publication.
At the frontier
Forecasting failures from fleet telemetry so crews arrive before outages. We design, operate and maintain it. We take it to a real research site under a written pilot plan before it becomes a release. Crews, software and records stay the same as the network grows.
At the frontier
Close inspection of masts, panels and enclosures without climbing. We deploy, operate and maintain it. We take it to a real research site under a written pilot plan before it becomes a release. It is delivered and supported by Nexus Observatory Inc.
At the frontier
Machine-readable records of materials, repair and recycling per product. We design it. We take it to a real research site under a written pilot plan before it becomes a release. The same design repeats from the first site to the last.
At the frontier
Field photos with signed capture time, location and device for audit. We design, deploy and operate it. We take it to a real research site under a written pilot plan before it becomes a release. Every reading and every change leaves a record that can be checked later.
At the frontier
We integrate it. We take it to a real research site under a written pilot plan before it becomes a release. Service levels are written as numbers you can measure. It is delivered and supported by Nexus Observatory Inc. The evidence travels with the data wherever it goes.
At the frontier
Lithium-free chemistry with good cold performance, under evaluation for stationary use. We integrate it. We take it to a real research site under a written pilot plan before it becomes a release. Crews, software and records stay the same as the network grows.
Trust
A node joins only after its hardware root of trust answers an attestation challenge. Keys stay in secure hardware, software arrives signed, and every reading carries a signature, so its origin can be checked by anyone downstream without asking us.
Time and place
Readings are stamped against a disciplined clock, from satellite time or a PTP grandmaster, together with the station position and its siting record. When time or position is degraded, the record says so instead of hiding it, and every analyst downstream sees the same warning.
Updates
Software and configuration reach the fleet in rings: a canary site first, then a few, then all, each ring gated on health and data completeness. A failed gate stops the wave and returns each node to its last good release, without a site visit.
Operations
The operations console shows every node with its state, its plan and its evidence. Alerts arrive with their data and a runbook; acknowledging one opens a work order, and an incident closes only when the cause is recorded and the fix verified.
What you get
Site power, connectivity, timing and operations for telescopes, flux towers and research stations. Delivered as managed service and professional services, for universities, research infrastructures, space agencies. Scale: Global research sites. Service levels are written as numbers you can measure on your own dashboard.
Talk to salesNext step
Tell us the sites, the measurements and the people who will use them. We reply with a design and a scope for research. An engineer replies with a survey proposal and a scope, and the plan grows from one site to the network you need, at your pace.
