Series Overview This article is the third in a series about what it takes to deploy a fully functioning remote data ecosystem for your organization. Anywhere you have assets in the field, whether it’s machinery, people, tools, light vehicles, or specialized equipment, those assets are generating information that could be valuable or critical to running a successful and efficient operation. Over the past few decades, connectivity and...

As the heightened environmental disasters increase across the globe, so has the focus on improving emergency response preparedness as well as updating remote communications. More often, entire regions lack communications infrastructure due to disaster, and realize, sometimes too late, the necessity to establish a satellite communications backup solution or to replace their End-of-Life (EOL) equipment. Iridium’s unique constellation...

Winter is creeping its way upon us, and brings with it snow in 70% of the United States. Snow depth measuring is a very analog process involving no more than a snow stake in the ground and someone to read it via camera or in person. In theory that’s a solid way to gauge the snow, but in reality, there are environmental barriers to accuracy, mainly wind. A snow stake at the base of the mountain pass could read 10cm at 6 AM, so it’s clear...

About Iridium Every 15 minutes, you can look up into the sky from anywhere on earth and if you have great eyesight or a telescope, chances are you will see a tiny moving dot in the sky - no it’s not a bird, not a plane, not Superman, but it could be an Iridium Satellite orbiting across the globe. Iridium is a uniquely sophisticated global constellation of 66 cross-linked Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites, creating the Iridium network that...

When the unexpected disaster hits and cell towers go down, Satellite phones are the typical next means of communication. More often than not, however, extended time has elapsed since any use of those satellite phones. Satellite phones oten get misplaced, or ownership gets lost due to employee turnover, or the batteries are left uncharged and there is a scramble to get reconnected. What if you could leverage the Iridium Satellite Constellation to ...

Most GIS systems incorporate mapping imagery or layers is by purchasing licenses from a single mapping provider. This provider may also offer additional historical satellite imagery for use by the GIS provider, but the images provided may be antiquated or out of date, with recent construction or natural events which change the natural landscape and topography of an area omitted. To address this, clients often opt to use their own imagery in...
