When it comes to selecting geospatial data for a project, there are numerous factors to consider. Each project has unique needs, and the type of data chosen can significantly impact the outcome. For this blog, I won’t cover every consideration, but I want to highlight the use of data from Capella Space for a specific application—open-pit mining.
For this particular project, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data, such as that produced by Capella, is a perfect fit. SAR data is uniquely suited to monitor changes in terrain and track movements with exceptional precision, even under challenging conditions.
