NOVI has introduced STORM™, a new space-edge computing platform designed to revolutionize in-orbit data processing. This technology enables real-time analysis of satellite data directly in space and as such, reduces the need to transmit large amounts of raw data to Earth. This innovation has the potential to lower costs and improve the speed of decision-making for industries reliant on Earth Observation data — from agriculture to environmental monitoring.
STORM allows users to develop and test edge-processing algorithms on satellites and enhances autonomous decision-making capabilities in space. As the demand for satellite intelligence grows, this space-edge computing platform offers efficiency, ease, and trustworthiness. By reducing costs and latency, STORM opens the door for broader access to space-derived data, as well, which in turn will make it more feasible for industries that depend on timely and actionable information.
