Learn about our Cloud Removal and Compression technology at Space Tech Expo Bremen
Satellite imaging plays a critical role in sectors like agriculture, security, and environmental monitoring. However, 51% of Earth’s surface is cloud-covered at any given time, leading to a significant amount of wasted imagery data. This not only diminishes efficiency but also drives up costs related to image downlink and data processing.
Ubotica’s CogniSAT CRC (Cloud Removal and Compression) technology addresses this challenge by detecting and removing clouds from satellite imagery in real-time. It then compresses the cloud-free images, making them more efficient to transmit.
The substantial impact of CRC:
- Reduces Downlink Costs by 85%: By eliminating cloud-covered portions of images, CRC cuts down the data sent back to Earth, reducing transmission costs by 85%.
Cuts Ground Processing Time: With cloud-free images, post-processing requirements on the ground are minimized, providing faster access to usable data. - Annual Cost Savings: These improvements can save satellite operators up to $140,000 per year, significantly lowering long-term operational expenses.
- Enhancing Real-Time Decision-Making: In applications like disaster response, national security, or precision agriculture, having access to cloud-free images in real-time can greatly improve decision-making, allowing users to act faster and more accurately.
At Space Tech Expo Bremen, Ubotica will showcase how CogniSAT CRC is transforming Earth observation, offering satellite operators smarter and more cost-effective ways to deliver clear, actionable insights in real time.
