Earth Imaging 'startups' -- nextgen #earthscience in an era of #climatechange and #globalsecurity threat
A New Space era - startups to watch (our eyes are especially on Planet Labs and DigitalGlobe) [2]... BlackBridge [3], Dauria [4], DigitalGlobe [5] #DigitalGlobe, highest rez commercially avail #earthimaging from space [6] [7] [8] GeoEye [9], Firefly Space Systems [10] [11], GeoOptics [12], NanoRacks [13], [14] [15], NovaWurks [16], OmniEarth [17] [18] [19] [20], OrbitLogic [21], PlanetiQ [22], Planet Labs [23] Pulse [24] [25] [26], RapidEye [27], Skybox [28] [29] [30], Teledyne [31], Tyvak Nano-Sat [32], Urthecast [33]

“With all these start-ups, the things you’ll be able to do with satellite images will grow exponentially.” - IEEE-May 2014
Moving from almost exclusively multi-billion dollar military/defense-communication satellite operations to nextgen 'small cap' startups and 'New Space' ventures and applications with earth systems monitoring, resources, sustainable business, and low-earth orbit space travel with companies like Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic...
