Objectives of the Product

Skymetry’s cutting-edge monitoring services are designed to revolutionise how assets are managed across various industries. Leveraging advanced remote-sensing technologies, Skymetry offers accurate, scalable, and cost-effective solutions. Skymetry’s mission is focused on fusing together advanced remote-sensing technologies and AI annotations to assess and monitor large assets in the Energy, Infrastructure and Urban domains.

While supporting owners in safeguarding asset integrity and managing site control and planning, Skymetry also plays a key role in evaluating the environmental sustainability of these resources, determining the potential impacts these assets can generate on the surrounding territory.

• Skymetry redefines asset maintenance and sustainability assessment by delivering 4D-geospatial SaaS Solutions that match high-resolution maps, deep historisation, high geospatial accuracy and informed decision-making tools while embracing a broadened view of the asset.
• Skymetry is specifically designed to promote seamless data acquisition integration from multiple Earth Observation (EO) sources, either airborne (UAVs, aircrafts) and spaceborne (satellites). Furthermore, it streamlines the processing and publishing of AI-assisted virtual investigation tools.

Benefits:

• Asset Monitoring Effectiveness: Skymetry Monitoring Services provide comprehensive coverage and timely detection of critical asset evolutions, enhancing asset management and risk mitigation.
• Cost Efficiency: by optimising data usage and leveraging AI-driven analytics, Skymetry ensures efficient resource allocation in the data-gathering phases, resulting in cost savings for our clients.
• Seamless Integration: Skymetry Monitoring Services are designed to seamlessly integrate and complement the clients’ existing GIS legacy systems, enhancing operational workflows and data accessibility.
• Enhanced Decision-Making: Skymetry AI Services provide accurate insights, enabling informed decisions to be taken with confidence.
• Operational Efficiency: Skymetry AI-driven solutions streamline workflows and optimise resource allocation.
• Real-Time Insights: Skymetry timely issues qualified insights about changing conditions and emerging trends, for proactive decision-making.

Customers and their Needs

Skymetry’s solutions are tailored to meet the specific needs of each served industry vertically.

Skymetry Services have been tailored according to vertical user-needs expressed by operators within the Energy, Infrastructure, Environmental Protection and Urban Planning domains.

Thanks to the experience acquired by DigiSky over the past 10 years, Skymetry’s uniqueness lies within the native integration and combination of all possible EO sources into a single end-to-end SaaS platform that competitively delivers insightful 4D AI-enabled reports, which can be directly integrated into the operational workflows of infrastructure owners and governmental agencies.

In the Energy sector, Skymetry Services optimise infrastructure monitoring in the power generation and transportation, contributing to their sustainability and efficiency.

In the Infrastructure domain, Skymetry Services provide in-depth inspections to ensure resilience and safety. In pre-construction phases, Skymetry provides accurate Digital Twins which are at the foundation of the digital design and simulation.

Thanks to Skymetry Environment solutions, ecological changes can be monitored to safeguard natural resources and assess hydrogeological risks.

In Urban Planning, Skymetry empowers the envisioning of how the “as-built” context can be evolved while extracting BIM-ready models. Skymetry Services ensure that clients gain actionable insights to improve operations and achieve sustainable outcomes.

Targeted customer/users’ countries

The Skymetry SaaS product is designed to serve four primary customer segments:

• Infrastructure operators (transportation, gas, water)
• Energy providers and utilities.
• Urban planners and municipalities.
• Environmental agencies and organisations.

Clients in these sectors can benefit from Skymetry’s user-friendly web-GIS interface to place georeferenced orders to monitor their assets.

By integrating EO data, Skymetry ensures continuous monitoring of areas of interest, while acting as “magnifying lens”, whenever required.

Through advanced change-detection AI algorithms, the aerial inspections are triggered, using certified general aviation aircrafts equipped with high-resolution sensors (RGB, SAR, TIR, LiDAR, Hyper-Spectral). This combination of EO sources and observation bands enables superior monitoring insights, while optimising operations time and costs through selective and automated data-gathering strategies. Besides relying on existing EO sources, Skymetry competitively supports innovative spaceborne payloads vendors and upstream nano-satellite OEMs with atmospheric testing, de-risking and calibration services (SkyGate), thus contributing to the development of the EO upstream segment in New Space Economy.

Product description

Skymetry provides advanced monitoring services that combine satellite, aerial, and AI-driven technologies to offer precise, real-time insights for industries operating in the energy, infrastructure, environment, and urban planning fields.

Skymetry Services enable the transition from traditional ground-based monitoring methods to remote-sensing practices, by providing an integrated virtual inspection environment co-piloted by AI.

Skymetry is an integrated end-to-end SaaS solution for monitoring operations that automatically tasks the most suitable EO sources relevant to the target asset and release AI-based reports that co-pilot very-high-definition virtual inspection operations within an integrated web-GIS environment.
