Ursa Space Systems To Deploy
Global Constellation Of Satellite Intelligence On
AWS Data Exchange
January 12, 2022
Ursa Space Systems Inc.,
is collaborating with AWS Data Exchange (ADX) to
make satellite data and insights easy to find,
subscribe to, and share with partners in the cloud.
Amazon Web Services (AWS)
customers and partners will have access to satellite
intelligence at scale, thanks to this collaboration,
which commenced in 2021. Ursa Space will list its
image services catalog and data analytic services on
AWS Data Exchange.
Ursa Space specializes in
leveraging hundreds of radio frequency and imaging
satellites in their platform to enable rapid
response, decision making, and insights based on
changes in our physical world. Such insights allow
first responders, global security organizations,
financial institutions, maritime, energy, and
insurance customers to understand when a change has
occurred anywhere in the world, and how best to
respond.
Once a customer is subscribed
to the service, they can use AWS Data Exchange for
APIs to acquire data from Ursa’s imagery and
analytic services, allowing for decisions to be made
more rapidly than ever before, leveraging insights
from hundreds of satellites around the world.
“Satellite intelligence enables
decision-making in response to changes in our world
that often lead to the savings of time, money and
lives. The challenge our community has is making
those insights more readily available and quick to
ingest. Ursa Space and ADX hope to shake up the
industry, and more importantly, to deliver those
critical insights to our global customers and
partners in hours vs. days.” Nicole Robinson,
President of Ursa Space
