Such factors propelled the growth of the surface & field analytics market during the pandemic period.
Top Impacting Factors
Increase in demand for surface & field analytics software in smart cities development and urban planning
Modern smart cities are data-driven and are highly dependent on sharing real-time data. Collecting data from thousands of IoT sensors and analyzing it by an enterprise-grade surface & field analytics solution to create visualization of the data on a map for immediate actionable insights. These insights can be used to track the delivery of city services and highlight areas where local council services need improvement. Moreover, location-based analysis of IoT data has further been used by local government to develop smarter parks, improve safety, and drive innovation. While developing smart cities projects, surface & field analytics solutions are implemented to create generalized location-enabled platform for use cases analysis in smart cities environments. These include automated natural hazard monitor web surface & field analytics with SMS warning, climate monitoring, urban design, intelligent transportation systems, and disaster management SDI. surface & field analytics software for smart city helps in site selection & land acquisition, planning, designing & visualization, construction & project management, and operations & reporting. Specialists apply surface & field analytics in urban planning for analysis, modeling, and visualization. By processing geospatial data from satellite imaging, aerial photography, and remote sensors, users gain a detailed perspective on land and infrastructure. These benefits of surface & field analytics are driving the surface & field analytics market growth.
Use of satellite monitoring to control the spread of COVID-19
Geographic understanding is crucial in detecting and responding to any infectious disease outbreak, particularly in case of pandemics such as COVID-19. Remote sensing software enables epidemiologists to map disease spread against different parameters such as demographics, geographies, environment, and past infections to understand spread pattern & intensity and origin of such outbreaks to implement surveillance, preventive, and control measures. Demand for remote temperature sensors such as infrared cameras is growing at fast pace during the pandemic. For instance, researchers at the University of South Australia (UniSA) partnered with DragonFly, an aerial services company, to deploy a drone to detect and monitor individuals with infectious respiratory conditions remotely. The drone would be fitted with a specialized computer vision & sensor system, along with remote sensing software tools that can monitor heart & respiratory rates, temperature, as well as detect people coughing and sneezing in crowd, airports, offices, aged care homes, cruise ships, and other places. Hence, rise in adoption of remote sensing software for such applications contributes toward the growth of the surface & field analytics market.
