An overview of the technology required to get satellite imagery into the hands of the people who need them


Take a journey through the insane chain of technology required to get satellite imagery into the hands of the people who need them, featuring humorous units of measurement to help contextualize the scale of engineering and scientific advancements that make it possible. But technology alone isn't enough to change the world, what is really needed is innovative man-machine interfaces to make the data accessible.

Chris has been coding and obsessing over space technology since he was 11 years old. He is the CTO of Soar and has 10 years of experience building innovative mapping software.
