Growing the world's largest shared infrastructure in space, the Open Constellation

没有比太空更好的观看世界的方式了！当我们面临保护环境等重大挑战时，一场卫星数据的革命已经在发生，它正在帮助我们获得对地球生活和商业几乎各个方面的有价值的见解。通过大规模计算，我们可以处理数兆字节的数据，并使用人工智能工具来分析和呈现数据。与此同时，廉价、多样化、更精密的卫星和发射技术的出现，催生了一批令人兴奋的新公司，它们出售的不仅仅是国防数据。OpenCosmos是其中的一部分，但它是为数不多的能够以快速、经济的方式交付端到端卫星任务的公司之一，并拥有全新的太空商业模式：OpenConstellation，一个由OpenCosmos建造和管理的全球共享卫星基础设施，使每个人都能访问卫星数据。通过共享空间资产，我们大大降低了成本，简化了获取关键地球观测（EO）数据的途径，否则这些数据将通过自有卫星或不灵活的数据购买计划获得。OpenCosmos也一直在开发运行星座所需的操作工具套件和dataccosmos，这是一个为地理空间数据提供高级可视化和应用程序的软件平台。英国是我们的本土市场，这个为期六个月的项目将使我们能够研究我们的OpenConstellation的商业和技术可行性，以实现下一阶段的增长，这是雄心勃勃的。我们的服务旨在通过建立地理空间数据增值解决方案提供商的全球生态系统，覆盖数百万独特的数据用户。我们将着眼于验证市场需求以及定义和开发技术概念。最后，我们将确定系统和服务的发展和商业化的下一步步骤。

There is no better way to get a view of the world other than space! As we face major challenges like preserving our environment, a revolution in data available from satellites is already happening and is helping us gain valuable insight in almost every aspect of life on Earth and business.With massive scale computing we can process Tbytes of data and use A.I. tools to analyse and present it. At the same time, the emergence of inexpensive, diverse and more sophisticated satellites and launch, has led to an exciting new breed of companies that sell this data beyond defence.OpenCosmos is part of them, but one of the few capable of delivering end-to-end satellite missions in a fast and affordable way and with a completely new business model for space: The OpenConstellation, a global, shared satellite infrastructure built and managed by OpenCosmos to enable everyone to access satellite data.By sharing space assets, we are dramatically lowering the cost and simplifying access to critical Earth Observation (EO) data that otherwise would be available through owned satellites or inflexible data purchase schemes. OpenCosmos has also been developing the suite of operational tools needed to operate a constellation and DataCosmos, a software platform providing advanced visualisation and applications for geospatial data.The UK is our home market and this six-month project will enable us to study the commercial and technical feasibility of our OpenConstellation for the next stage of growth, which is ambitious. Our service is intended to reach millions of unique data users via enabling a global ecosystem of value-add solution providers of geospatial data. We will be looking at validating the market requirement as well as defining and developing the technical concepts. We will conclude by identifying next steps in the development and commercialisation of the system and service.
