Services Overview
Datasets, dashboards, APIs, and cloud architectures that enable an organization to add commercial satellite intelligence to its analytic workflows.
Our users can start with one of two monitoring approaches: standardized subscriptions or site-specific monitoring.
Use the dropdown menu to expand details by type.
Standardized Subscriptions
Standardized subscriptions provide information on pre-determined AOIs, and are a great avenue to test out our analytics. After receiving and analyzing results, many customers choose to transition to site-specific monitoring to learn more.
An API and Dashboard that measures the majority of the world’s crude oil stored in floating roof tanks and underground facilities with brine ponds. Customers use this service for gaining an edge when trading oil by adjusting their physical balance estimates to reflect actual market conditions more closely. Other customers incorporate oil inventory data into quantitative trading models to maximize their returns across various instruments (e.g. equities).
An API and Dashboard that measures iron ore and coal stockpiles across major import and export terminals in the world. Customers gain information on market fundamentals in opaque corners of the commodities universe, which can be used for trading in the physical and financial markets for metals, coal and power.

An API and dashboard that curates datasets of interest to better understand risk in East Asia. In particular, this data feed focuses on Chinese military activity and how it impacts INDOPACOM, the semiconductor trade, and other trading activity on land and at sea. In partnership with context partners, we provide broad area monitoring and trending of military and commodity storage sites reflected in detailed reports that are delivered weekly. This is a great data feed to test our most advanced ATR and change detection algorithms.
An API and dashboard that curates datasets of interest to better understand risk in Eastern Europe. In particular, this data feed focuses on the Ukraine conflict and how it impacts EUCOM and trading activity on land and at sea. In partnership with context partners, we provide broad area monitoring and trending of military and commodity storage sites reflected in detailed reports that are delivered weekly. This is a great data feed to test our most advanced ATR and change detection algorithms.
Site-Specific Monitoring
Site-specific monitoring is a more customized experience; users choose where they want to look, what they want to monitor, and any data they may want fused with analytic results for contextual analysis.
Ursa Space takes care of planning, collection, processing, and standardization of data. Ursa Space leverages relationships with 20 of the world’s most trusted Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR), Electro-Optical (EO), and Radio Frequency (RF) providers. Users may place purchase requests to schedule a SAR collection at a future date, or purchase existing imagery from the archive catalog. Customers can specify the processing level (SICD, GEC, GTC, POV, XML Metadata) for their purchased imagery, and the files are made available to the user via AWS S3.
Ursa Space specializes in multi-modality data fusion, connecting its SAR, EO, and RF based analytic results with partner, open-source, and customer datasets. This allows for contextual analysis and specific insights that enhance situational awareness.
Ursa Space has developed a series of proprietary analytics that detect and classify objects and changes of interest. See examples here for Objects, Change, & Measurements.
Decision Engine
For analysts who need dynamic reporting compatible with their existing infrastructure, Ursa Space offers user-first features that are customizable and updated in near-real time.
Integrate directly into your existing infrastructure via API. Data standardization, together with machine-driven and machine-augmented workflows, provide end-to-end system integration and compatible derived product outputs. Automated algorithms allow insights to be delivered, and thus decisions to be made rapidly.
Build your own view for your organization’s unique needs. Choose any location globally, including the world’s busiest facilities and ports. Filter multi-modality data fusion by time, region, and detection/ classification type. Customize your activity monitoring with both change and object detection.
What is the current status? Get an at-a-glance view of your selected data and fusion layers with class-leading time-to-deliver.
How has the status changed? Examine historical detections and activity in your AOIs to gauge patterns of life.
What does this mean in context? Receive rapidly delivered, unclassified reports provide situational awareness for tactical decision making.

Detections & Classifications
Maritime domain awareness requires a system-of-systems solution, as no single data source provides a complete picture. Ursa Space’s maritime analytic suite is designed to detect, classify, and identify various vessel types and activities using SAR and fused data sources.
Whether from natural or manmade forces, ground conditions and activity can change rapidly. Ursa Space has developed a series of SAR based algorithms that can monitor change and activity in your AOIs detailing patterns of life, earth alterations, strategic commodity storage, and more.
Detecting and maintaining custody of targets is key in generating valuable tactical insight. Ursa Space’s SAR derived object detections and classifications provide users situational awareness of man-made objects in continuously evolving environments.
ORDERING & DELIVERY
Submit orders and receive near-real time analytic results programmatically
Ursa Space’s STAC compliant delivery API reduces latency and provides users flexibility in querying and aggregating data. The ordering API allows for submission of custom AOIs and time ranges, simplifying the orchestration process.
Navigate security constraints surrounding cloud-based delivery methods.
Ursa Space offers PDF GEOINT reports sent via messaging apps like Signal. This allows for secure sharing and detailed data analysis. Reports include imagery and AOI metadata, descriptions and images for all detections and classifications, fortification data, and summaries of fused data.
A dynamic, versatile environment to explore datasets.
Ursa Space offers interactive Tableau and ESRI dashboard options. These interfaces showcase analytic results alongside external data (including those from USG sources) and include historical activity and analysis. Dashboard visualizations are customizable and updated in near-real time.
