Brazil Satellite Imagery Services Industry Overview
The Brazil satellite imagery services market exhibits a moderate level of consolidation, featuring several key players such as ESRI, Urthecast Corp, Airbus Group Inc., L3 Harris Corporation, Galileo Group Inc., and others. These companies consistently invest in strategic partnerships and service advancements to secure a substantial share of the market. Notable recent developments in this sector include:
In March 2023, Esri unveiled a web-based mapping application based on the ArcGIS API for JavaScript. This application, known as the "Sentinel-2 Land Cover Explorer," is designed for the assessment and analysis of land-cover changes. It seamlessly integrates Esri maps, image services, spatial analysis tools, and ESA Sentinel-2 imagery at a 10-meter resolution. Importantly, this browser-based application requires no additional software or login credentials, enhancing accessibility for users.
In December 2022, TerraClass Cerrado introduced mapping solutions utilizing technologies and data sourced from the Brazil Data Cube project. TerraClass Cerrado represents a collaborative effort involving the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock, and Food Supply (MAPA), the National Institute for Space Research (INPE), and the Brazilian Agricultural Research Corporation (Embrapa), all operating under the Ministry of Science, Technology, and Innovation (MCTI). The Brazil Data Cube (BDC) initiative, led by INPE, is focused on generating analysis-ready data and multidimensional data cubes covering the entire country. It leverages innovative technologies, including time series computation and artificial intelligence, to extract comprehensive land use and land cover information from vast data volumes, contributing to enhanced geospatial insights.
