Our Projects

CLOUD 2 LEO DEPLOYMENT

A free and open source project to build a continuous integration/delivery (CI/CD) pipeline to deploy code and data from a local developer's machine to a satellite in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO).

BIG DATA REPORTING USING AWS CLOUD & TABLEAU

In less than 12 weeks of elapsed effort, we built a powerful and flexible end-to-end big data reporting solution using Amazon Web Services and Tableau.

RADARSAT-1 LIBERATORS

"Realtor.ca, for RADARSAT!"
In less than 48-hours at Space Apps Ottawa hackathon 2019, a small team tackled the Canadian Space Agency- and Natural Resources Canada-proposed challenge: automate searches on the EODMS system to identify rich sets of geospatial Radarsat-1 imagery to process.

SPACE APPS HACKATHONS

Space Apps hackathons are a fun introduction to the world of open source projects and the space industry. Solve challenges designed by NASA and the Canadian Space Agency.

We use our unique methodology to reduce your software project's

01

Open

Software, documentation, tools provided under open source license to encourage commercial adoption, and increase quality and distribution.

02

Accelerated

Accelerate delivery via standardized content, tools, solution blueprints, task and project templates and extensive use of "best of breed" tools.

03

Scientific

Hypothesis and experiment-based approach  to promote learning and sustainable delivery improvements, while meeting project goals.

04

Insightful

Domain specific language for recording insights and advice from consultants, partners, and clients, which leverages data analytics and AI.

05

SMART

Set - and then track and deliver against - Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Rewarding, Time-bound (SMART) project goals and objectives.

How does it help?

Our Space Apps RAD Methodology is based on over two decades of global and award-winning software development experience. It is focused on reducing the rate of software project failures and increasing the likelihood of achieving business goals.

We tackle the riskiest elements first with creative, short proof of concepts and experiments that are tightly tied to SMART Goals and Objectives. We communicate closely with customers and users and adjust the features and approach in response to actual results and user feedback. We make extensive use of academic partnerships in North America and elsewhere. Where possible, we open source the resulting software and tools, in order to encourage ongoing adoptions and improvements.

What's a "Space App"?

Coined by NASA for their annual International Space Apps hackathon, there's no formal definition. We describe it as a software application that uses data from space to achieve business goals and objectives. Its characteristics include:

  • Always includes data from space
  • Rapid development, creativity, and innovative approaches to problem solving
  • Focus on user experience and adoption
  • Solution is mostly or entirely open source
  • Generally fits in the "downstream" or "end user" segments of the space industry value chain

Many of the software applications you've built or used may be considered space apps.
