VanderSat

VanderSat, founded in 2015 and headquartered in The Netherlands, is a leader in the provision of satellite-observed data with a focus on water and crop conditions. Their slogan, "Unmatched water data. Satellite observed," underscores their commitment to delivering insightful data critical for addressing global challenges like food and water security.

At the core of VanderSat's offerings is their use of passive microwave technology, which provides precise soil water content and crop status analytics, unaffected by meteorological conditions such as cloud cover or nightfall. This technological edge gives them a competitive advantage in providing essential insights to clients.

In November 2021, VanderSat was acquired with an investment of $28.00M by Planet Fund, reflecting strong market confidence in their capacity to aid in global resource management through advanced satellite data analysis. Their mission aligns well with current global needs, as extreme weather and population growth pose increasing threats to food and water security worldwide.
