We turn satellite imagery of the Earth into the basis for better decisions. We use machine learning to connect a decades-long portrait of the planet with a rich set of historical training data. Our technology allows us to quickly go from hypothesis testing to meaningful measurements and forecasts of changes in the Earth's surface. Our first product is focused on agriculture and is in testing with agribusiness and financial data marketplace customers this growing season.
