CORE BUSINESS
Hydrosat is a data analytics company based in Luxembourg that applies proprietary algorithms to satellite thermal imagery, combines it with data fusion capabilities and delivers insights into plant health and related applications for commercial and government customers around the world.
PRODUCTS & SERVICES
Our team in Luxembourg is focused on developing two commercial products, both with significant commercial potential and offering substantial environmental benefits. The first focuses on early and accurate yield forecasts of all major crops across the globe. Agribusiness companies, financial traders, governments and other customers will have unparalleled insights into what they can expect out of local and global production of everything from grains to sugar cane to cotton, allowing businesses to operate more efficiently. Our second product tells farmers exactly when and how much to water their crops. Hydrosat’s own field studies, backed up by NASA research, have demonstrated that this will increase farm production by 20% while also substantially decreasing water usage – a win for the farmer and a benefit for the planet.
TECHNICAL MEANS
Hydrosat applies data analytics and data fusion techniques to thermal infrared and multi-spectral satellite imagery and turns it into actionable insights. Hydrosat’s multidisciplinary team has expertise in the areas of big data analytics and distributed computing, remote sensing, image processing, image segmentation and classification, time-series forecasting and machine learning. Hydrosat has particularly developed expertise in the areas of vegetation health, stress monitoring and crop yield forecasting.

MAJOR SPACE PROJECTS
Thermal Infrared Remote Sensing Constellation
Although there are many space imagery constellations in orbit and planned for launch, thermal imagery is missing. Consequently, Hydrosat is developing a constellation of sixteen spacecrafts that will provide a complete heat map of Earth twice per day. The data from these satellites will enhance our products and give us unparalleled access to high-resolution thermal imagery to meet the needs of a wide range of commercial and government customers.
