02The offer

What space and satellite systems delivers to an industry.

The same platform serves every industry below; what changes is the place, the instruments and the service level.

Who it is for

Built for every industry on the network, and for any operator with sites to observe.

What it does

From orbit to the ground, on one protocol.

How it is delivered

Under contract: mission and payload integration, tasking and downlink services and non-terrestrial backhaul for remote sites.

What you get

One accountable integrator, service levels written as numbers you can check, and the record of every site.

03Use cases

Worked use cases in these industries.

Each names who deploys it, the kit by device class and the data products it publishes.

Use case

Street flood observatory

Ultrasonic depth sensors on poles report street-level water depth as open data and alerts. Read the use case →
Use case

Hybrid air-quality observatory

A few reference analysers and many low-cost nodes, with co-location calibration and an open-data feed. Read the use case →
Use case

Community cellular and sensing

Small cells with an open core, satellite backhaul and solar power, plus a sensing overlay, for a community that owns its network. Read the use case →
Use case

GBON gap-filler station

A WMO-grade surface station, optional upper-air ground station and a WIS 2.0 node, built to report reliably where the global basic observing network has gaps. Read the use case →
Use case

Wildfire camera and fire-weather node

Pan-tilt and thermal cameras with edge inference on a ridgeline tower, co-located with a fire-weather station. Read the use case →
Use case

Agromet cooperative network

Compact weather stations and soil probes on farms, feeding irrigation, frost and disease models for a cooperative or an insurer. Read the use case →
