Constellr is pioneering the use of thermal infrared microsatellites for global land surface temperature (LST) monitoring. We deliver daily, sub-field, LST imagery optimised for high-precision agriculture, temperature-derived crop health management, yield forecasting and sustainable resource management. Learn more Supported by Agriculture's Hidden Water Problem The global food system uses 70% of available freshwater but wastes 60%. Climate change, land degradation and a growing population builds pressure to use fewer resources more efficiently. Unmitigated water stress causes major yield losses. A lack of transparent data on crop stress at the field level can have massive repercussions across supply chains. Current water monitoring tech cannot scale globally. Today's satellite systems provide information too late for mitigative action at field level. Detection of early water stress via thermal imaging can contribute to enhanced yield, reduced operating costs and optimized resource & supply chain management. Find out how constellr radically improves today's crop monitoring capabilities. Find out more Land Surface Temperature A thermal fingerprint for every field on the planet Daily, Global Coverage Daily revisit times for time-critical precision farming. High Temperature Accuracy Comparable with Sentinel-3 or Landsat- 8. High Spatial Resolution Better than 50m for optimised field-level management. Plug & Play API Analysis-ready data for your AOI, available now. Request a demo 1,000 m every 12 h 50 m every 12 h State of the Art: daily, field-level, global, Level-2 georeferenced land surface temperature data. Our thermal data makes it possible to detect plant water stress immediately via evapotranspiration, a much more robust measure of plant health than current visual approaches. This allows for mitigative action on the same day and before irreversible crop damage occurs. Thermal Intelligence A radically better understanding of crop stress and yield potential.

Precision Irrigation Are you a Smart irrigation provider or system operator? Constellr augments sensor or drone intelligence with high-resolution, verified, daily satellite input for optimizing water use, helping significantly reduce wastage. • Field-level input optimisation • High spatial and spectral resolution • Daily mitigation for sensitive crops or regions We're currently working with an Israeli irrigation company to help optimise their digital irrigation services with satellite-based TIR data. Learn more Crop Health Monitoring Want to enhance your digital product portfolio or your regional mapping services? Constellr provides hydrologic insights into crop behaviour, helping you identify stress days to weeks earlier than current technology. • Advanced warning of water stress • Field- to scale crop management • Precise, evapotranspiration-based measurement We're collaborating with a Dutch agri-analytics company to enhance their satellite-based monitoring and yield improvement products. Learn more Crop Yield Forecasting Striving for supply chain transparency? Substantial areas under management? Constellr help optimise input practices at scale and help significantly reduce uncertainty in yield prediction with access to highly reliable crop health data. • Direct crop stress measurement lowers uncertainty • Transparent insights across regions, farms and fields • Direct integration into existing yield models We're supporting several crop forecasting companies keen to use our high resolution data to improve crop yield modeling and stabilize commodity trading activities. Learn more Drought & Cold Monitoring In need of verifiable, low latency temperature tracking data? Constellr’s data on top- and root soil moisture content and sudden cold episodes assist with timely prediction of and mitigation for drought or late frost damage, supporting land managers develop appropriate counter-measures. We're working with a handful of large agri-food corporates looking to optimise the predictability of their global operations and supply chain with both local (precision input optimisation) and global (regional water stress index) intel. Learn more Disaster Monitoring Require data to enhance hazard detection and take effective suppression action? Constellr’s high spatial resolution and short revisit times support early wildfire detection as well as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and other small and large scale temperature anomalies and can help inform mitigation and counter-measures. We're working with Google to explore the merging of thermal infrared datasets with the early development of some of the worst Californian wildfires in history to learn more about wildfire detection and control.
