Shipping
& Logistics Opportunity

The largest and fastest-growing part of the rapidly expanding space economy is in the downstream applications domain of Supply Chain, Transportation and Mobility (‘SCTM’).

 

A recent World Economic Forum/McKinsey report (May’25) shows the space communication & observation sector will be worth c.$500bn by 2030 in the €8tn Transport/Supply Chain sector alone, with ‘Space’ comms and observation delivering costs savings of c.35%.

 

With over 34 billion IoT connected sensors in use across the global supply chain in 2024 (predicted to rise to 140bn by 2035), the benefits of the ‘fusion’ of IoT data with real-time tracking and earth observation satellite images are huge. Including providing hyper-accurate ‘real-time’ visibility of shipments, anywhere in the world, 24/7, making them more efficient, more resilient, more sustainable and safer.

The fusion of ground based IoT data and ‘real-time earth observation imagery via Space Aye's platform provides the opportunity for an entirely new, holistic visibility over almost every aspect of shipping and logistics business activities.

 

As the WEF reports; “It will further require the divide between space data and terrestrial-based IoT data to be not just broken down but discarded completely. This will enable “data fusion”, in which the two previously isolated information sources are merged.”

Bringing Two Worlds Together

Track and identify AIS signalling and individual container IoT data in real-time satellite imagery, anywhere in the world, all the time. Plan, predict and optimize routes, shorten travel times via a more comprehensive real-time, accurate view of the supply chain and shipping ecosystems.

 

Reduce risks and insurance costs by mitigating against ‘dark’ ships who turn off AIS tracking (via tracking IoT sensors on individual containers). Remote sensors integrated with real-time satellite imaging is a gamechanger for everything from counter-smuggling and theft operations to environmental traceability and compliance, saving $bn’s.

Shipping & Marine Connectivity

Track shipments and vehicles via GPS and more sophisticated 'Telematics', integrated into real-time imaging to better monitor route optimisation, reduce fuel costs and emissions. DHL is claiming up to 50% shorter transit times via this new 24/7 visibility, without yet even implementing the integration with real-time imaging capability.

 

And, capture real-time imaging of suspicious activity to reduce theft and related revenue loss and insurance costs.

Fleet Management

Use integrated IoT data tracking in real-time satellite imaging to ensure compliance with the new Corporate Sustainability & Due Diligence Directive coming into force from 2027. Monitor and prove compliance, reducing the risk of fines and related insurance costs.
