#satellitedata — Public Fediverse posts

Using satellite images, researchers from TUM and the University of Oxford developed a new method to measure tidal variability with greater precision, helping to improve #coastalprotection and #navigation: https://go.tum.de/933512 🌊 🛰️

In short: It’s not an apocalypse; it’s a data corrective. It proves that the engine room of our planet is a highly active, rapidly changing environment, and it took a constellation of advanced satellites sixteen years of data-crunching to finally reveal what happened right under our feet.

#Anduril Industries acquired #ExoAnalytic Solutions to expand its #spacedefence capabilities, aiming to improve the Department of Defence’s visibility in space. The acquisition aligns with #Trump’s “#GoldenDome” defence system, which prioritises #trackingsystems and #satellitedata. https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/11/anduril-acquires-exoanalytic-solutions-i-trump-golden-dome.html?eicker.news #tech #media #news

When one thing leads to another and you end up acquiring a 1.8m Satellite dish.
Can‘t wait to start designing, building and testing a mount, followed by the x-band setup… this will take a while to come to fruition.

Meanwhile I still have my small 60cm dish to work with.

Get to know the #startup Hula Earth, which uses #satellitedata and #birdcalls to determine #biodiversity. More than 80 small high-tech boxes are installed in the outdoors, collecting data and transmitting it to the company headquarters: http://go.tum.de/230329

🛰️ Today I’m sharing one of my favourite large-scale remote sensing experiments:
a Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of MODIS composite data for the three central provinces of Canada (Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba).

On this map:
- PC1 emphasizes broad ecological zones and vegetation productivity
- PC2 highlights soil and surface moisture differences
- PC3 captures subtle spectral variations — often linked to geology, wetlands, disturbance patterns, or local microclimates

Even though it looks abstract, PCA is a kind of “spectral fingerprint” of the land. It summarises thousands of square kilometres into a single visual structure that shows how the Canadian Prairies and Boreal regions differ and transition into one another.

UC San Diego: Don’t Look Up: There Are Sensitive Internal Links in the Clear on GEO Satellites . “We observed unencrypted cellular backhaul traffic from several providers including cleartext call and text contents, job scheduling and industrial control systems for utility infrastructure, military asset tracking, inventory management for global retail stores, and in-flight wifi.”

🎉 10 years of mundialis!
We started with a belief: data should be open, transparent & meaningful. Today, we develop open software using satellite data to tackle climate change, biodiversity loss & soil degradation.
The journey continues – with open paths & new insights.

Can a model trained on satellite data really find brambles on the ground?

🚀 A true honour to welcome Professor Dame Wendy Hall to WorldPop!

We had an inspiring and wide-ranging conversation on using AI and satellite imagery to fill global demographic data gaps 🌍 - plus insights into UK data sharing initiatives and the power of interdisciplinary collaboration.

Exciting times ahead as we work to make our demographic data more inclusive, accessible, and actionable. 💡🔬
