Let’s imagine a customer “Analytics Co” needs high-resolution imagery of an AOI for regular monitoring 🛰️
Consider our confidence in Amazon: a purchase translates to 2-day delivery, with multiple status updates.
Analytics Co’s customer journey for satellite data tasking is unlike e-commerce transactions - unless you’re a high-priority gov’t customer or very well-funded commercial client, purchase does not guarantee delivery 😬
It’s as if Amazon order response was: “We may or may not deliver.”
The tasking order process for Analytics Co extends after order submission. The uncertainty is in the fulfillment phase, where providers execute complex supply chain logistics.
Analytics Co sends a request specifying the site location, collection cadence, sensor morphology and resolution to multiple data providers. Some will deem the order infeasible due to various constraints. If deemed feasible, some data providers may accept tasking, but not guarantee data collection and delivery.
Analytics Co receives multiple prices quotes and order feasibilities.
Excel spreadsheet, anyone? 🙄
The industry lacks a standardized definition of "feasibility”. These assessments are typically static and fail to account for the real-time dynamics inherent within provider supply chains.
Analytics Co doesn’t have ongoing visibility into the likelihood of order fulfillment, or a real way to compare across providers.
Consider:
➡️ How much better could Analytics Co support customers if there was a comprehensive metric for order fulfillment success across multiple data providers, the “constellation of constellations”?
➡️ How much more effectively could Analytics Co use their data budget with improved predictability and reliability of tasking order feasibility assessments?
➡️ How much better could data providers support Analytics Co with more insight into market and customer demand?
To have those, order location, timelines, price, competition, orbits, geometry, sensor type, weather, product type, satellite constraints must be considered, and multiplied by 10,000+ orders being managed 24/7/365.
It’s a problem ripe for AI/ML.
One we’ve been working for quite some time.
