Agriculture
Grow smarter with satellite crop intelligence
Farms and agribusinesses manage thousands of acres where conditions change field by field, day by day — and a missed stress event or mistimed input costs yield. Walking fields is slow and samples only a fraction of the ground. SkyWatch gives agriculture teams the right data — multispectral imagery and vegetation indices — to monitor crop health, target inputs, and forecast yield from the desktop.

The platform
A unified platform for crop and land monitoring
SkyWatch gives agriculture teams a single place to discover, buy, manage, and integrate geospatial data — no specialized expertise or multiple vendors required.
Discover imagery across providers
Access satellite, aerial, and (soon) drone imagery from a growing ecosystem of providers — without managing multiple vendors.
Purchase and task new data on demand
Order imagery for the fields and dates you need, with transparent pricing and flexible tasking.
Centralize and manage your imagery
Keep historical and in-season data organized, accessible, and ready for analysis across the team.
Integrate into your existing workflows
Use imagery directly in GIS and farm-management platforms, dashboards, and analytics tools via API.
Spot crop stress before the eye can
Crops reflect near-infrared light long before stress shows up in visible colour. Vegetation indices like NDVI and EVI turn those invisible bands into a per-pixel map of vigour — so you scout by exception and act before yield is lost.
Use cases
Use cases for agriculture teams
Put satellite imagery and vegetation indices to work across the workflows that matter most to your operation.
Crop health & vigour
Map greenness and biomass across every field to find underperforming zones early.
Irrigation & water management
Use water indices to find dry spots and target irrigation before stress sets in.
Yield estimation & forecasting
Track season-long vigour to forecast yield and plan harvest and logistics.
Field & boundary mapping
Map field boundaries and management zones for variable-rate planning and records.
Sustainability & compliance
Keep an objective, time-stamped record of land use for sustainability and compliance.
