The service platforms that design, build and run the systems this industry relies on, each with the areas that matter here. [Plan a deployment](https://observatory.global/contact/deployment/) [Use cases](https://observatory.global/industries/events/use-cases/) [Open the explainer](https://observatory.global/industries/events/explainer/) **01** Service platforms ## The platforms behind this industry. Each platform is its own site, with its areas, its technologies and its reference architecture. [Service platform ConnectivityPrivate 5G, AI-RAN and orbit, on site.](https://observatory.global/connectivity/) [Service platform Field servicesSurvey to decommission, one accountable crew.](https://observatory.global/field-services/) [Service platform Hardware & powerBuilt for the site, not the lab.](https://observatory.global/hardware/) [Service platform Sensors & instrumentsMeasurements that carry their own proof.](https://observatory.global/sensors/) [Service platform Data & licensingGrid data, licensed for your use.](https://observatory.global/data-products/) [Service platform Operations centreEvery node watched. Every incident closed.](https://observatory.global/#lines) **02** Connectivity ## Private 5G, AI-RAN and orbit, on site. Standalone private 5G and O-RAN, AI-RAN on shared accelerated compute, LEO and GEO backhaul and 3GPP direct-to-device, LPWAN and mesh for sensors over kilometres, PTP timing inside the budget, and the spectrum route for each country. - [Private 5G](https://observatory.global/connectivity/private-5g/) - [AI-RAN](https://observatory.global/connectivity/ai-ran/) - [O-RAN](https://observatory.global/connectivity/o-ran/) - [Satellite and NTN](https://observatory.global/connectivity/satellite-and-ntn/) - [LPWAN and mesh](https://observatory.global/connectivity/lpwan-and-mesh/) - [Timing](https://observatory.global/connectivity/timing/) - [Spectrum](https://observatory.global/connectivity/spectrum/) - [Connectivity](https://observatory.global/connectivity/) **03** Field services ## Survey to decommission, one accountable crew. Ground, RF and power surveyed before anything is chosen, installation and commissioning to the plan, a Managed Site run for you, support by plan, training on your own site, and decommissioning with every part recorded. - [Survey](https://observatory.global/field-services/survey/) - [Install and commission](https://observatory.global/field-services/install-and-commission/) - [Managed Site](https://observatory.global/field-services/managed-site-cell/) - [Support](https://observatory.global/field-services/support/) - [Training](https://observatory.global/field-services/training/) - [Decommission](https://observatory.global/field-services/decommission/) - [Field services](https://observatory.global/field-services/) **04** Hardware & power ## Built for the site, not the lab. Sensor nodes to 7U racks, enclosures and masts, solar, battery and microgrid power sized to the load, ruggedisation specified for heat, cold, dust, water and shock, and platforms that move: vehicles, vessels and airborne. - [Form factors](https://observatory.global/hardware/form-factors/) - [Power](https://observatory.global/hardware/power/) - [Ruggedisation](https://observatory.global/hardware/ruggedisation/) - [Mobile and deployable](https://observatory.global/hardware/mobile-and-deployable/) - [Reference designs](https://observatory.global/hardware/reference-designs/) - [OEM](https://observatory.global/hardware/oem/) - [Hardware & power](https://observatory.global/hardware/) **05** Sensors & instruments ## Measurements that carry their own proof. Weather and environment stations to WMO practice, RF spectrum sensing in the band, and calibration that is traceable, recorded and repeated. Every value leaves with its metadata, quality flag and provenance. Or buy the observations and leave the hardware to us: Sensing as a Service. - [Instruments](https://observatory.global/sensors/instruments/) - [Weather and environment](https://observatory.global/sensors/weather-and-environment/) - [RF sensing](https://observatory.global/sensors/rf-sensing/) - [Calibration](https://observatory.global/sensors/calibration/) - [Sensing as a Service](https://observatory.global/sensors/sensing-as-a-service/) - [Sensors & instruments](https://observatory.global/sensors/) **06** Data & licensing ## Grid data, licensed for your use. Research, commercial API, enterprise and government tiers, the licence of every source carried through to every product, routes from licensed to open release, and residency fixed by contract. - [Products](https://observatory.global/data-products/products/) - [Tiers](https://observatory.global/data-products/tiers/) - [API](https://observatory.global/data-products/api/) - [Publication](https://observatory.global/data-products/publication/) - [Residency](https://observatory.global/data-products/residency/) - [Data & licensing](https://observatory.global/data-products/) **07** Operations centre ## Every node watched. Every incident closed. Monitoring of fleets, sites and links around the clock where contracted, incident response from first alarm to root cause, managed services that run the network for you, and service levels written as numbers you can measure on your own dashboard. - [Monitoring](https://observatory.global/) - [Incident response](https://observatory.global/) - [Managed services](https://observatory.global/) - [Service levels](https://observatory.global/) - [Reporting](https://observatory.global/) - [Operations centre](https://observatory.global/#lines) **08** One architecture ## Every platform on the same open protocol. Identity, time, observation and evidence work the same way on every platform, so the systems this industry buys fit together. **01** ### Join Identity, attestation quote, signed policy. **02** ### Admit Admitted for a stated scope, nothing wider. **03** ### Describe What, where, how and by whom, with calibration. **04** ### Time One clock across the grid, with its error bound. **05** ### Observe Every value with quality and provenance. **06** ### Qualify Tested against the specification, state on record. ### Ready when you are.
