Problem
Monitoring space objects and activities requires significant investment in infrastructure for data collection, processing, and storage. Traditional methods involve high costs associated with operating and maintaining a globally distributed telescope network. This creates barriers to entry for organizations needing real-time observational data and analysis of space objects.
Solution
OurSky offers a developer platform that provides on-demand observational data and analysis of space objects, leveraging a global network of over 40 telescopes. The platform eliminates the need for users to manage their own telescope infrastructure, data processing pipelines, or storage solutions. Customers can task the network to track targets with sub-arcsecond precision across various orbits, including LEO, MEO, GEO, and cis-lunar. OurSky also provides serverless data pipelines and edge computing capabilities, allowing users to run custom code and algorithms for real-time analysis.
Target Audience
OurSky's primary customers include satellite operators, space domain awareness organizations, national defense agencies, launch providers, scientific researchers, and AI application developers.
