Computer vision · Geospatial AI · Aerial

Deep tech. Planetary insights.

We are a deep-tech research startup working at the intersection of advanced computer vision, geospatial AI and aerial data systems. We don't just apply existing models. We push how neural networks interpret the Earth, turning raw feeds from space, aerial and land into high-fidelity, actionable intelligence.

Core research pillars

Built for the three major modalities of remote sensing

We develop next-generation segmentation, classification and object detection frameworks, each optimised for how its sensor sees the world.

Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)

Speckle-resilient backbones and custom attention mechanisms that interpret polarimetric backscatter signatures.

Applications

Hyperspectral cube analysis

Bespoke 3D-CNNs and spectral-spatial transformers that read spatial features and continuous chemical curves together, without overfitting.

Applications
Sub-pixel mineral mappingEarly crop disease detectionContamination tracking

Multispectral & optical delineation

Zero-shot foundation models and cross-attention architectures that align different band resolutions seamlessly.

The algorithms we are advancing

State-of-the-art vision, re-engineered for the Earth

We adapt leading architectures so they work on the data remote sensing actually produces, from radar phase grids to raw 3D point clouds.

  1. 01

    SegFormer extensions

    Hierarchical transformer encoders that model long-range context, cutting the compute needed for ultra-high-resolution multispectral grids.

  2. 02

    Geospatial SAM adapters

    Custom adapter layers for foundation models like SAM 2, bridging everyday vision and non-optical data such as SAR phase grids.

  3. 03

    PointNet++ for aerial LiDAR

    Point-set networks that ingest unordered 3D point clouds directly, for canopy profiling and digital terrain models.

  4. 04

    Multi-scale DeepLabv3+

    Tuned atrous spatial pyramid pooling that captures winding rivers and pipelines alongside macro-scale features, without edge erosion.
