People have always needed timely access to information and the ability to understand what’s going on around them, but now they have to contend with the added domain of space. Listen to Nick Merski from Black Sky Global talk about how his company delivers unique space based data insights to their customers by utilizing the cloud. In addition, learn how their cloud based ground architecture allows them to leverage commercial ground station providers to spin up antenna assets on demand. Black Sky’s user platform, C2 systems and image processing pipeline are all in the cloud and have been from the start, giving access to space based data with exceptionally fast delivery. Nick discusses the different ways that people consume data and suggests a standard or common language to communicate the attributes of data, especially as it relates to time.
