Spire Global, Inc., a provider of satellite data, analytics and intelligence, announced an expanded agriculture intelligence offering that integrates soil moisture observations with weather forecasting capabilities.
The solution is designed to deliver a continuous past-present-future soil moisture and weather intelligence framework, combining more than 40 years of historical records with daily satellite observations. It also includes site-specific forecasts extending up to 45 days and AI-driven sub-seasonal guidance.
The company said agriculture is among the most climate-exposed industries globally, while soil moisture and weather intelligence remain fragmented, sensor-dependent and limited in spatial coverage. Spire linked the need for improved environmental visibility to intensifying droughts, floods and shifting seasonal patterns, which it said can affect crop performance, capital allocation and risk management.
Using its proprietary Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) radio occultation and reflectometry data, Spire’s integrated solution provides the following capabilities:
Spire said the integrated solution is intended to enable earlier detection of crop stress, more efficient irrigation and input timing, and improved crop and yield modeling. The offering is delivered via API, allowing digital farming platforms, insurers, agribusinesses and government agencies to embed environmental intelligence into operational workflows.
Spire said the approach reduces reliance on hardware-based sensors and supports scalable deployment across global agricultural portfolios.
“Climate volatility is increasing agricultural and economic risk, while much of the environmental data infrastructure supporting the industry remains fragmented and hardware-dependent,” said Shawn Mechelke, General Manager, Weather, Climate and Aviation at Spire. “Timely, globally consistent insight is essential for modern agronomic decision-making. By integrating satellite-derived soil moisture insights with advanced forecasting, we enable earlier intervention, more efficient resource use, and stronger operational resilience across global agricultural systems.”
Spire (NYSE: SPIR) describes itself as a global provider of space-based data, analytics and space services. The company says it builds, owns and operates a fully deployed satellite constellation that observes Earth in real time using radio frequency technology, providing global weather intelligence, ship and plane movements, and spoofing and jamming detection. Spire also offers Space as a Service solutions and has offices across the U.S., Canada, UK, Luxembourg and Germany.
The Vietnamese pig farming industry is supported by a large, steady demand base, but it remains highly volatile due to price cycles and disease risks. As smallholder farming shrinks and large enterprises play a bigger role, companies with stronger control over the value chain are better positioned to manage costs…
Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
