About Near Space Labs

Near Space Labs is a geospatial data company. It captures high resolution, 7 cm orthoimagery from the stratosphere. The site says it uses its own autonomous vehicles and technology stack from launch to landing.

The site says its stratospheric vehicles fly at 65,000 feet. It says the company flies 2 to 4 times higher than traditional solutions and captures 10 times the data. The site says resolution stays high at that height.

The company offers five solutions. These are a nationwide program with 7 cm coverage delivered twice a year, infrastructure monitoring, environmental monitoring, geospatial services, and hosted payloads. Custom capture is available for specialized needs.

The site lists industries served. These include property and casualty insurance, state and local government, energy and utilities, forestry and environment, mapping technology, and roofing and home services. The site says the data supports planning and risk work.

The site says legacy programs force a choice between resolution and coverage. It says the company offers both, with data refreshed on the customer's schedule. The site says older imagery can lead to poor decisions.

The site's story says the company's goal is Earth observation for business, community and climate resilience. The resources section lists projects, a white paper, and API docs. Demos can be requested through the site. No phone number or street address is listed.
