Production Engineering
for EO & Geospatial Systems

We engineer production EO and geospatial systems: EO data pipelines, geospatial APIs and data services, processing platforms and operational integrations, from architecture to long-term operation.

Engineering Capabilities

01

Production Architecture & System Integration

Platforms and integrations that run in production. Delivered: applications and a telemetry platform for a Destination Earth service provider.

02

EO/GIS Data Pipelines & Services

EO data pipelines, geospatial APIs and data services, and the workflows around them. Delivered: Web GIS integrated with ERP for major Greek ports, as a subsystem of a larger project.

03

Cloud-Native Deployment & Operations

Containerised deployments, release automation and infrastructure integration, on Kubernetes in the cloud or on premises.

04

Monitoring, Reliability & Operational Support

Operational monitoring, incident investigation and long-term support for systems after delivery.

What We Build

01

Geospatial Platforms

  • Web GIS applications
  • OGC service layers, WMS, WFS and OGC API
  • Spatial databases and data models
  • GIS integration with ERP and business systems

02

Earth Observation Systems

  • EO processing pipelines
  • STAC catalogues and data cubes
  • Applications on Destination Earth, for a service provider
  • Production services from research models

03

In-situ Data

  • End-to-end in-situ data platforms
  • Sensor integration over MQTT, LoRaWAN and HTTP
  • Time-series storage and aggregation
  • Operational dashboards and alerting

Specialised Engineering Services

Projects

End-to-end project delivery

From requirements to a system in operation, with a single team accountable for delivery.

Subsystems

Specialised subsystems

A defined component, such as GIS, EO processing or data ingestion, within a larger project led by another contractor.

Teams

Engineering teams and architecture

Engineers working within the client's roadmap, and design reviews for new and existing systems.

Security

Geospatial Security Assessment

Assessment of what geospatial services expose and to whom, by ScaleApp engineers.
