PARIS, France, Dec. 15, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SkyWatch Space Applications Inc. ("SkyWatch"), a leading provider of machine-to-machine (M2M) Earth observation aggregation and data management platforms for satellite operators, announced today, at World Satellite Business Week, the launch of the TerraStream Certified Solutions Provider program.
SkyWatch's integrated data management platform, TerraStream, provides satellite operators with the ability to monetize, process, and manage their Earth observation data. Satellite operators often approach SkyWatch in the early stages of their journey, and SkyWatch quickly recognized the opportunity to provide satellite operators with access to a network of trusted, vetted, and integrated solutions providers across functions such as ground station, command-and-control, on-board analytics, and raw data processing.
The program launches with eight key TerraStream Certified Solutions Providers: AIKO, Atlas Space Operations, AWS Ground Station, CATALYST, Kubos, Mobius Labs, RBC Signals, and Spiral Blue.
"With the launch of the TerraStream Certified Solutions Provider program, we're able to offer satellite operators with industry-leading, end-to-end solutions to optimize and shorten their path to revenue," says Joel Cumming, Chief Technology Officer at SkyWatch. "With our Solutions Providers, we're providing robust solutions to help forge new paths into space, so we can make life on Earth better."
"We are thrilled to partner with SkyWatch and to unlock deep insights for TerraStream users through our AI solutions. The geospatial sector is growing more rapidly than ever and Mobius Labs is here to make sense of that exponential increase in data," says Will Hannan, Chief Commercial Officer at Mobius Labs. "We can't wait to see what the world will do with the power to easily pull intelligence from so much available information."
