Earth observation: a radar satellite’s swath crossing real relief, the downlink to a ground station.
Nexus Observatory
/
Earth observation & GeoAIGround-segment downlink and processing at the edge, drone and imagery campaigns planned to the ground sample distance, site twins measured in 3D, and GeoAI trained and checked against field truth, with the source and licence of every layer in view.
