If you were handed the controls to a satellite, what would you do? Track meteors, ice cream, pipelines, pharmaceuticals, a fleet of trucks, large container ships in the middle of the ocean? Practically every industrial sector company has a use case for the remote monitoring of machinery, transportation, goods and other things in hard-to-reach areas. In the past this has only been possible with  expensive satellite communications in conjunction with other obscure services. Now new nanosatellite technology is radically changing the landscape, making satellite-enabled monitoring and tracking affordable and available to everyone.

In this webinar, our panel will address these topics:

If you could access space at radically lower price points, what would you use it for? Tracking of:

  • Transportation (container ships in the ocea
  • Pipelines in politically unstable areas
  • Power plants, solar plants in the middle of the desert

How affordable are we talking?

Who are the key…
