Customers in a wide range of industries rely on data collected by our global constellation of nanosatellites to make critical business decisions. Explore Spire's data product offerings:
“If we can identify and leverage emerging [data] sources…and algorithms, we will disadvantage our adversaries and enhance our position in the world.”
Launch is never boring and success is never a guarantee. With 16 launches now under our belt, the majority of those having launched in the last 2 years, Spire already launches satellites into orbit more often than any other company in the world. But 3 launches in under 3 weeks? We thought this deserved a mention.
Low data latency is not an accident. It is the result of leveraging a global ground station network that spans 28 locations in 11 countries. Space-based data is closer and faster than you realize.
We're excited to be working with NOAA again as part of their Commercial Weather Data Pilot Program. With the expansion of our Boulder, CO office and the hard work of our weather team, we're ready to supply even more data to support government science and weather prediction initiatives.
At the Small Satellite Conference in Utah last week, Spire announced it signed a multi-launch contract with Arianespace to launch one of our largest batches of LEMUR satellites to-date. In 2019, Spire will ride on Vega’s proof of concept mission as part of ESA’s Small Spacecraft Mission Service program, with the option to book additional flights afterward.
Today was an important day for Spire and for the aviation industry as 4 new LEMUR2 satellites entered orbit carrying Spire’s new AirSafe payload alongside their usual suite of ship and weather tracking sensors. They begin the process of adding complete global plane tracking coverage to our constellation of nanosatellites.
