Introduction to the U.S. Geospatial Imagery Analytics

New technologies, such as machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), enable businesses and government organizations to analyze large amounts of data in real time for better decision-making. ML and AI algorithms excel in pattern recognition, predictive analysis, and automation, providing valuable insights, optimizing operations, and enhancing overall efficiency.

This digital revolution is not only enhancing decision-making processes but also shaping the future of industries across various sectors, including healthcare, finance, transportation, and more. Furthermore, high-resolution satellite images and geospatial data are becoming more widely available, which is one of the factors driving the growth of the market.

Furthermore, the rise in deployment of small-satellite constellations in the U.S. by various companies such as Capella Space, Descartes Labs, Inc., and Planet Labs PBC are capable of cost-effective geospatial solutions. The regional companies have access to high-resolution satellite imagery data through the Earth observation satellites in orbit.

There are approximately 1,000 Earth observation satellites, out of which more than 600 of these satellites are being operated by the U.S. Hence, deploying more satellites has decreased the satellite imagery acquisition cost and made it more affordable for geospatial services.

Furthermore, the region is collaborating with commercial geospatial service providers through contracts and partnerships for intelligence and defense needs. For instance, in March 2023, Planet Labs PBC announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Planet Labs Federal, Inc., secured a contract from the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) under the Strategic Commercial Enhancements (SCE) Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) program, with a specific focus on Commercial Hyperspectral Capabilities (CHC).

Industrial Impact

The U.S. geospatial imagery analytics market is witnessing rapid growth due to the growing demand for integrated domain awareness solutions, the deployment of small-satellite constellations, and the need for real-time data for surveillance or commercial purposes.

The increasing deployment of small satellites for Earth observation applications is another factor that is driving the geospatial imagery analytics in the region. In 2022, the region contributed more than 140 Earth observation satellites in orbit. The high-resolution remote sensing data is utilized by various geospatial imagery analytics providers for offering solutions to commercial and government organizations.

For instance, Planet Labs PBC, a satellite imagery data provider, manages terabytes of satellite datasets through its satellite constellation of more than 150 satellites. The company provides satellite imagery data access to users through its web-based tools, such as the application programming interface (API). However, compliance with regulations and international agreements regarding the collection, storage, and use of geospatial data can be complex and may vary by region.
