Orbital Insight toward the close of last year announced the launch of TerraScope, a self-serve, analytics platform.
Designed for automated analysis of phone, car, truck, ship location, and satellite imagery, TerraScope democratizes geospatial intelligence by delivering deep, actionable insights. The platform removes adoption barriers, and makes it easy for non-technical and business users to benefit from location and Earth Observation (EO) data.
TerraScope blends computer vision and geolocation sensor data to detect changes, monitor activity, and discover patterns of life at any location. This platform enhances the existing features of the company’s successful GO platform that offers: (1) Multisensor data fusion combining location data and satellite imagery for comprehensive insights; (2) A library of predefined analysis for single-click insights; (3) Massive scalability for analysis on millions of areas of interest (AOI) to operate globally.
With TerraScope, companies gain near real-time visibility and access to historical trends that allow them to make informed business decisions. The AI-powered platform addresses business pain points in real estate site development, measuring customer loyalty in retail, optimizing supply chains, monitoring industrial facilities, and many more applications. For example, Facility Intelligence can help businesses identify changes at industrial facilities, understand anomalous activities across the supply chain and monitor port activity to identify logistical issues.
A fundamental problem in the geospatial ecosystem is the wide variety of sensor data. There is no single platform that can process all data types.
“TerraScope takes a multisensor approach. We have integrated dozens of complementary global data sets,” said Jens Tellefsen, SVP of Product, Marketing, and Data Partnerships. “TerraScope does the heavy lifting from sourcing, data ingestion to processing. Just pick where in the world you want to see, draw an AOI, and select an analysis from our library of predefined analysis for instant insights from foot traffic to ship movement.”
