5. Our Technology Has Been In The Making
For 30 years
05
Dozens of researchers &millions
of dollars in R&D were invested to
create a technology platform that
provides an end-to-end solution for
our clients.
We deploy an array of technologies –
satellite measurements, ground
observations, crowd sourcing, and
cloud computing – to provide robust,
integrated solutions to our clients.
