How to analyze Satellite Data

Automated detection of new buildings by dedicated AI algorithm

An AI algorithm specifically developed by Space Shift uses two satellite images taken at different occasions to automatically detect only newly built structures. By using color images taken by optical satellite together with the SAR satellite data, a highly accurate time series change can be captured.

The technology of Space Shift is provided on a satellite data platform operated by our business partner UP42 (headquartered in Berlin, Germany) and is already made available to the users around the world.
Note that Space Shift is the first company to provide the SAR satellite analysis technology on UP42.
