Key Market Players of Satellite Earth Observation Market | BIS Research The satellite Earth observation era began many years ago in 1957 with the launch of Sputnik 1, which orbited the Earth after every 96 minutes and transmitted the radio signals received from the earth. Post this, many satellites were launched, including TIROS-1 in 1960, which successfully entered the atmosphere and produced footage of weather through space. Earth observation satellites are basically equipped with payloads that are used to capture data about the characteristics of Earth. The captured data is then processed and analyzed to extract information that can serve various types of applications and end-users. Some of the leading players currently in this market include companies such as Airbus S.A.S, BAE Systems, Ball Corporation, BlackSky Technologies, Capella Space, EarthDaily Analytics (UrtheCast), Geospatial Insight, HawkEye 360, ICEYE, Kongsberg Satellite Services (KSAT), L3 Harris Technologies, Maxar Technologies, RS Metrics, Satellogic, Spire Global, among others. The global satellite Earth observation data and value-added services market is expected to reach $15,903.0 million by 2032, with a CAGR of 6.92% during the forecast period 2022-2032.
