Mission Denali: SkyServe to deploy its AI-Edge Computing Platform on Loft's Multi-Sensor Satellite
SkyServe STORM to leverage multispectral & hyperspectral data from YAM-6
We’re thrilled to share that we're teaming up with Loft Orbital for Mission Denali to deploy SkyServe STORM, our in-space edge computing platform on YAM-6.
Mission Denali will leverage Sensing and Compute Resources on YAM-6 to deliver insights from space. By processing multispectral and hyperspectral data in real-time, SkyServe STORM is defining the paradigm of space-based data processing, delivering insights processed from the edge.
YAM-6 blasted off to low-earth orbit aboard a Falcon-9, on the SpaceX Transporter-10 dedicated rideshare mission from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California, US on March 4th. The mission carried 52 other satellites that, like other Transporter missions, were composed of innovative new space startups both demonstrating new capabilities and increasing capacity for existing ones.
SkyServe STORM for Geospatial Developers
SkyServe is empowering solution providers and core industries with software infrastructure to deliver real-time insights from space. SkyServe STORM will deploy customers’ AI models on the edge leveraging Loft’s satellites to deliver on-demand predictions for wildfire tracking, irrigation, mining logistics, maritime surveillance, energy, utilities, and carbon monitoring. By deploying AI models onboard STORM, analytics providers can now accelerate their access to space data and process information in real-time at scale.
On-demand information from space has prompted the need for a reliable partner in space operations, and we are proud to work with Loft to provide the essential space infrastructure and multi-sensor data for SkyServe's ambitious goal to build critical value for geospatial developers.
How Loft Makes This Possible
Loft is pivotal to SkyServe's mission by providing space infrastructure and sensor data to power their platform. While many space companies are constrained to the traditional process of designing, building, integrating, testing, launching, and operating a satellite, Loft manages this challenging, capital-intensive process so customers like SkyServe can directly access the data they need. SkyServe STORM will leverage Loft's compute resources and sensing capabilities including multispectral, hyperspectral, and RF sensors.
What's Next (TL;DR)
In the coming months, SkyServe will enable geospatial companies to push their AI models to space in a snap. It will help them process and feed multi-sensor data into their models onboard. The shared vision of making space simple, and democratizing satellite data pushes the boundaries in the realm of space-based technologies.
