Top Impacting Factors
Factors such as increase in advancements in remote sensing technologies, rise in need of remote sensing data in various defense applications, growth in adoption of remote sensing services for environmental risk management, increase in investments in satellite communication and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) payloads, and use of satellite monitoring to control the spread of the COVID-19 are expected to impact the market growth. Emerging trends such as emergence of technologies such as cloud computing, big data analytics, and Internet of Things (IoT) are further expected to have a strong impact on the remote sensing service market in the upcoming years. However, regulatory issues and lack of comprehensive government policies and higher initial investments required for remote sensing hampers growth of the market. Thus, each of these factors is anticipated to have a definite impact on growth of the North America market in the future.
Rise in need for remote sensing data in defense
Adoption of robots, drones, and satellites, along with remote sensing capabilities have significantly improved the level of security of defense armed forces. Remote sensing data is increasingly used in defense applications for generation of geographic information for applications such as mission planning, flight simulation, and air-defense planning, which generates the need for adoption of remote sensing service in the defense industry. For instance, in January 2020, Kongsberg Geospatial, an Ottawa-based defense and aerospace geospatial technology company, and MartinUAV of Plano, Texas, a developer of UAV technologies, announced partnership to pursue an integrated intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) solution including remote sensing solutions for the Royal Canadian Navy and Canadian Special Operations Forces Command (CANSOFCOM), a defense organization. Remote sensing service solutions help such defense organizations across the globe in different applications to meet the growing need for remotely sensing data.
