Case Study: LiveEO improves infrastructure monitoring with SkyWatch satellite data

How an infrastructure company uses satellite data

LiveEO, an infrastructure monitoring company, needed reliable and efficient access to multiple sources of satellite data to power its analytics platform. The challenge was dealing with the complexity of sourcing data from different providers, each with their own difficult APIs and commercial terms, which was a significant hindrance to their development process. They turned to SkyWatch and its EarthCache API to solve this problem.

SkyWatch provided a single, harmonized API endpoint through EarthCache, granting LiveEO easy on-demand access to the satellite imagery they required. This solution saved the development team considerable time and effort, allowing them to focus on building analytics instead of data acquisition. The ease of use enabled a quick integration and eliminated previous issues with contracts and large minimum purchases. As a result, LiveEO can now update its customers on infrastructure health in under 48 hours for a fraction of the cost of traditional methods like sending inspection teams or aircraft.
