Enterprise SoftwareOverview: Edgybees
The company’s software-only technology brings accuracy, full visibility, and understanding to any full-motion video stream or satellite image. It fuses computer vision, multi-sensor data analytics, and 3D video generation to generate coherent, up-to-date situational images. The result is instant clarity within even the most complex operational environments.
Edgybees’ system corrects GPS data accuracy on satellite imagery from 50 meters down to 2 meters, which makes the imagery much more effective in critical applications including insurance surveys, tracking climate change, monitoring critical infrastructure, and building the metaverse - for which one of the key parameters is accurate location data linked to satellite imagery.
