Chris Robson, CEO of Wyvern, tells us about the world’s highest spatial resolution commercially available hyperspectral imaging data from low earth orbit. This is 5.3m resolution, 23 band earth observation solution can detect chemicals from space. We talked about examples like distinguishing fake from real grass and looking for weeds. The latter matters in the case of environmental rehabilitation at sites like abandoned well pads. If there is a government regulation to restore natural species but the oil company let weeds grow over instead, this can be detected from space using Wyvern. This is because hyperspectral imagery enables the detection of different plant species.
THE GEOSPATIAL INDEX
The Geospatial Index is a comprehensive listing of all publicly traded geospatial businesses worldwide. Why? The industry is growing at ~5% annually (after inflation and after adjusting for base rates). This rate varies significantly, however, by sub index. For $480,000 to start, this growth rate is $5,000,000 over a working life. This channel, Bluesky account, newsletter, watchlist and podcast express the view that you are serious about geospatial if you take the view of an investor, venture capitalist or entrepreneur. You are expected to do your own research. This is not a replacement for that. This is not investment advice. Consider it entertainment.
