Global Satellite-based Earth Observation Market 2014-2018

Reportstack Announces the Publication of its Research Report - Global Satellite-based Earth Observation Market 2014-2018. The following companies are the key players in Global Satellite-based Earth Observation Market: Astrium N.V., DigitalGlobe Inc., DMC International Imaging Ltd., MacDonald, Dettwiler & Associates Ltd., Deimos Imaging S.l.,eGEOs S.p.A., GeoOptics Inc., hisdeSAT Servicios Estratégicos S.A., ImageSat International NV, PlanetIQ, Rapid Eye A.G., Skybox Imaging Inc.
“One of the major trends witnessed in the market is the formation of the GEOSS. GEOSS is an internet-based platform that allows users of Earth observation data to access, search, and use the data, information, tools, and services for their needs. GEOSS is mainly used to develop a data-driven system to investigate the Earth's past, present, and future scenarios and models. In addition, the GEOSS is expected to address societal benefit areas of critical importance such as disaster, climate, water, weather, ecosystem, agriculture, biodiversity, health, and energy. The GEOSS was developed by the GEO, a voluntary partnership of governments and international organizations, to utilize the growing potential of Earth observation. The GEO has been coordinating efforts to build GEOSS on the basis of a 10-year implementation plan. The GEOSS system is expected to be completed by 2015. Therefore, the formation of GEOSS is an emerging trend that is expected to have a positive influence on the growth of the market during the forecast period.”
According to the report, one of the main drivers in this market is the increasing number of Earth observation satellites being launched. Seven Earth observation satellites were launched between January 2013 and October 2013. In addition, almost 30 Earth observation satellite missions are expected to be launched during November 2013-December 2014, and almost 258 Earth observation satellites are expected to be launched during 2014-2029.
Further, the report states that one of the major challenges in the market is the increasing adoption of UAV-based Earth observation. Many defense organizations as well as natural resources and biodiversity researchers, are using UAVs to gather information and imagery, because the UAVs provide more flexibility and hyper-spatial data compared to the satellite-based Earth Observation data.
The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
