The Satelytics Vertical: Biological Analyses

Satelytics deploys across customers' business groups.

Précis
  • Problem: Single-problem solutions.
  • Solution: A solution that monitors multiple threats.
  • Benefit: Simultaneously solve multiple business challenges with one set of data.

How many software systems are currently in place at your company? Is your response, “One too many?” This is why Satelytics seeks to be vertically integrated within our customers’ operations, environmental, engineering, and sustainability business groups. We provide alerts to threats facing large infrastructure areas from a single set of data, available to ten or a thousand users, for one cost. Satelytics’ goal is to make data easily accessible and actionable for our customers.

In the previous two articles of this series on the Satelytics vertical, we discussed the physical, chemical, and metal analyses available. Today the subject is our biological algorithms, which are currently benefiting a diverse group of industries.

Biological Analyses

Detect and quantify, detect and quantify, detect and quantify — this is the reason Satelytics was founded. Our first biological algorithms, chlorophyl-a and phycocyanin (quantified in parts-per-billion concentrations), were tailored for the water/wastewater industry to identify nutrient loading in the Lake Erie watershed. These, along with phosphorous and nitrogen from our chemical portfolio, make up the major indicators of harmful algal blooms in waterbodies. We also speciate and quantify subaquatic vegetation in these same waterbodies.

We offer our electric utility and pipeline customers a full suite of vegetation management tools so managers can be proactive instead of reactive along their corridors and rights-of-way: tree speciation, height, health, density, and strike potential. For buried utilities and pipelines, we identify loss of cover and speciation of grasses — including invasive species. These vegetation management capabilities also apply to forestry.

Our algorithms look for the unique spectral signatures of leaves in various states of life cycle to obtain speciation and health metrics. Our biological models are trained with spectral samples in the field and cataloged data from spectral libraries to be accurate from the get-go.
