Scale for Earth
Geospatial data pipelines, built to scale.
Scale for Earth designs and builds high-throughput data processing pipelines, and the backend systems that run them, for companies and organisations working with Earth Observation and other geospatial data, in the cloud or on-premise.
What we do
Consulting built around your requirements, from translating R&D methods into production pipelines to reviewing and redesigning existing systems.
- 01
Pipeline and backend architecture
Starting from your requirements, review how data moves from raw imagery to finished product, and the backend that runs and serves it. Find the bottlenecks and design a system that fits your volumes, deadlines and budget.
- 02
From R&D to production
Taking the methodology your R&D team has validated in a proof of concept and translating it into a production system: a data pipeline built for production throughput, with the backend to run it and deliver its results.
- 03
Migration to the cloud
Moving pipelines and the services around them from fixed, pre-allocated infrastructure to scalable pay-as-you-use services. In a recent project, processing ten years of data for one area of interest fell from over two hours to about five minutes.
- 04
Geospatial processing at scale
Workflows built around the demands of geospatial data: many areas of interest in parallel, long historical time series and large imagery archives, processed quickly and accurately, with the results stored and served to your products.
About
I’m an independent consultant who designs data processing pipelines, and the backend systems around them, for Earth Observation and geospatial data. I help companies and organisations process more data, faster and at lower cost, in the cloud or on their own servers.
