Satellogic aims to capture every
square meter of the Earth's surface to derive insights and enable better
decision making for industries, governments, and individuals.
Addressing some of humanity’s most pressing challenges, such as
providing food or distributing energy for nine billion people without
depleting resources, requires real-time planet-scale data. Satellogic
has created small, inexpensive satellites, that transmit real-time data
and images back home. Our constellation already has several
high-resolution satellites in orbit and is growing to 300 in the next
few years to provide new insights about our planet.
