There’s been an increasing focus on big data in recent years, and Spire Global aims to lead the field in the biggest data of all - Earth Intelligence - with its suite of satellites collecting data from beneath the Earth’s surface to the edge of the atmosphere.
It identifies three main areas of use for its data - Aviation, Maritime, and Weather. Its capabilities in these fields include providing over 660 million position reports each day for the aviation industry, building intelligent routing and tracking systems for maritime shipping, and supplying in-depth weather forecasting and climate impact analysis.
Beyond this, Spire Global's satellite system has countless other applications, such as real-time observation in active conflicts, and wildfire tracking. The company exists within a rapidly-developing market, in which it has already made a big impact. 2023 has seen it collaborate with BlackSky and Skyline Partners, the latter partnership seeing Spire advance into the InsurTech space, as well launch new technology to enable optical inter-satellite links.
