Survey report | PPTX and PDF (6 slides) | Earth Observation
"The majority of respondents believe that the demand for EO data and imagery is predominantly driven by government and military customers."
This report is based on a survey of ten Earth observation (EO) satellite operators worldwide, including both domestic-only players and larger regional and global players. The satellite operators surveyed provide solutions of various types such as synthetic aperture radar (SAR), optical and non-imagery.
We asked respondents about their data offerings and plans regarding downstream solutions, including which customers they serve (government/military or commercial) and which use cases they address. We also asked respondents how artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) is affecting their services and operations.
Questions answered in this report
- What are the current and emerging use cases for EO?
- What is the impact of AI/ML on the EO market and operations?
- What are the key customer groups for EO solutions? What is changing in the EO customer landscape?
- What are the preferred service models for imagery sales?
- What are the short-, medium- and long-term pricing trends?
- How is the EO value chain evolving?
