Surge in the demand for satellite data from various industry verticals
Increased need for satellite data in various industry verticals such as construction, oil & gas, agriculture, mining, and others is projected to help the market develop. The use these of satellite data in such industry verticals provides a number of benefits. The building of infrastructure projects can become more detail oriented with the use of high-resolution satellite images, and the satellite data can give a graphical reference for planners and engineers, resulting in more accuracy in their construction. Similarly, satellite imaging could be used in the mining industry throughout the pre-feasibility and feasibility phases of mineral extraction to obtain data-based information about the mineral possibility of the area in question. Thus, satellite data services help to store all data and deliver the same to respective operators. Moreover, the rise in unpredictable atmospheric behavior, owing to the rise in global warming increases satellite data services demand in earth observation and disaster management departments. Furthermore, surge in adoption of satellite data for various mapping applications such as Google Earth and Bing Maps, Geographic Information Systems (GIS), oil & mineral exploration, and 3D city models boost the demand for satellite data services. In addition, growth in the use of satellite data for land mapping, disaster mitigation planning and recovery, autonomous vehicles, and maritime operation also propels the demand for data services. Therefore, an increase in demand for satellite data services from various industry verticals including agriculture, energy & power, engineering & infrastructure, environmental, and maritime drive the growth of the market. For instance, in September 2021, ConstellR and ScanWorld, two emerging satellite data providers, established a new collaboration to combine their Earth Observation expertise to deliver data-driven insights for agricultural and vegetation management.

Defense & Intelligence is projected as the most lucrative segments
Increase in demand for earth observation satellites
Earth observation satellite is used for non-military applications such as environmental monitoring, meteorology, and map-making. All countries across the world are very much aware of global warming. These countries are also taking initiatives to reduce or to control it. To reduce global warming, observation of the earth from various perspectives is required. There is an increase in the demand for small satellites to observe changing and unpredictable behavior of the earth. For instance, Planet was given a contract by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in September 2021 to provide satellite Earth-observation data to researchers studying climate change, biodiversity loss, and other issues through work sponsored by the National Science Foundation and U.S. federal civilian agencies. In addition, the rise in demand for orthoimagery for base maps for wetlands, soil, farm-field boundary, forest inventory, and other natural-resource mappings, analysis, and planning applications also boost demand for earth observation satellites. For instance, Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI) signed an agreement with SpaceX in July 2021 for the launch of its upcoming medium-weight Earth observation satellite constellation in 2023. The satellite constellation will be used to monitor agricultural and forestry environments over wide areas, as well as C-band radar imaging of water resources and other applications. Therefore, there has been an increase in demand for earth observation satellites for such applications, which is expected to propel the growth of the satellite data services market.

Data Analytics is projected as the most lucrative segments
Lack of dedicated launch vehicles for small satellites
Satellite data services are usually provided by the number of small satellites from space. These satellites have typically smaller budgets and development time scales. The lack of sufficient funding has also resulted in the closure of the few dedicated small launch vehicle operators. For instance, Vector, a small launch vehicle business, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in December 2019. Thus, the absence of sufficiently inexpensive dedicated launch vehicles for the delivery of small satellites to orbit presents a significant barrier to the development of satellite data services. Although this issue of access-to-orbit would be addressed by secondary payload launch opportunities, where satellite operators can either share launch vehicle capacity through clustering or rideshare agreements. However, the cost of secondary payload opportunities is generally greater than the specific cost of the launch vehicle itself. Therefore, the lack of a dedicated launch vehicle for small satellites is anticipated to hinder the growth of the satellite data services market.

Commercial is projected as the most lucrative segments
Increase in adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML) and cloud computing in the space sector
Daily satellite imagery is rapidly being processed with machine learning (ML) algorithms to identify and detect objects, locate geographic and topographic characteristics, and track minute changes over time. Defense companies such as Lockheed Martin Corporation have developed the Global Automated Target Recognition System, which recognizes satellite pictures (GATR). These developments are likely to provide opportunities for the satellite data services market in near future. Moreover, ML and AI automated algorithms can accurately detect various things visible on earth from the space such as cars at parking lots, crop yield, and geo-sensing in agricultural fields. Furthermore, the amalgamation of cloud computing with satellite imagery enables researchers to access imagery data from remote locations. Cloud technology enables organizations to gain access to historic data, which may be used for analysis. AI and ML can be also used for satellite data-based aerial view monitoring and data analysis. Furthermore, increase in AI and ML based satellite data services by leading market players coupled with rise in intensity of related satellite launch also expected to offer market expansion. For instance, in September 2021, Ubotica Technologies announced that its CVAI Artificial Intelligence technology had been successfully launched into space aboard the PhiSat-1 satellite. To interpret Earth Observation data while in orbit, the Ubotica CVAI Artificial Intelligence (AI) system will use cutting-edge Deep Learning technology to make decisions aboard the PhiSat-1 satellite. Thus, the rise in the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in the space sector has created numerous opportunities for the growth of the satellite data services market.
