The satellite imagery market has experienced rapid growth in recent years, mainly due to the advancement of earth observation technology, the increase in commercial satellites, and the widespread application of big data and artificial intelligence in image analysis. Satellite images are widely used in agriculture, energy, defense, environmental monitoring and other fields, driving the diversified development of the market. Governments and militaries in many countries have a huge demand for satellite images, especially in border monitoring, military operations, disaster response and other aspects. High-resolution images can provide accurate information support for national security and geopolitical analysis. With the increasing severity of global climate change, the application of satellite images in environmental monitoring is becoming more and more important. Through satellite remote sensing technology, scientists can monitor environmental data such as forest cover changes, sea ice melting, climate change, and air quality. At the same time, satellite images can also help farmers and businesses monitor crop growth, soil health, and water resource management, thereby improving agricultural production and efficiency. Natural resource management and exploration fields, such as oil, gas and mineral resources, also rely on satellite data to optimize resource utilization and reduce environmental impact. Satellite images play a key role in disaster management, such as rapid response to natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes, and hurricanes. Urban planning and infrastructure construction are also increasingly relying on satellite images to obtain accurate geographic information for effective urban expansion and transportation planning.
