Telecommunications & Networks
Supporting telecommunication infrastructure owners and service providers with data-driven tools for planning, optimisation and monitoring, powered by our EO and AI expertise.
Global demand for connectivity keeps growing exponentially. Service providers face insatiable data requirements, necessitating continuous expansions, upgrades and evolution. Infrastructure investments must be de-risked, with accurate intelligence. Whether it's monitoring of tower site integrity, mapping of vegetation growth, detection of site encroachment, prediction of population growth and new settlement areas, and modelling of urban clutter impact on traffic patterns, network planning and operations teams need versatile tools to be efficient. At SPACE-SHIP, we support operators, regulators, tower companies, and data centres with advanced tools at the intersection of Earth Observation, AI analytics and network traffic modelling.

Our team brings over 15 years of combined experience at the intersection of telecom infrastructure, Earth Observation, and data science. We support operators, tower companies, and regulators with tools that turn raw imagery and data into actionable insights that guide proactive actions. From EO-based tower structure and ground deformation monitoring to automation of encroachment alerts, resolution enhancement of line-of-sight (LoS) mapping, vegetation & disaster risk analysis, energy analytics, rural coverage mapping, we design and deliver custom solutions that reflect deep domain knowledge and technological dexterity. Whether it’s integrating with NOC, CRM, ERP, OSS/BSS systems, forecasting demand at the node level, or enabling automated reporting on regulatory compliance, we build what telecom stakeholders actually need.
We don’t sell off-the-shelf dashboards; we build bespoke full-stack systems tailored to your network’s goals. From optimising site selection and forecasting network traffic demand to monitoring site conditions and mitigating outages, our integrated telecom solutions support decision-making and informed actions across commercial, operations and regulatory domains.
Tower Site Monitoring
Our state-of-the-art system automates the detection of tower tilt, foundation issues, flood risk, encroachment and vegetation growth. With weekly/monthly change detection, the system identifies sites at risk (subsidence, encroachment, vegetation) and flags them. Crews are dispatched only to flagged sites, leading to a 30% reduction in the need for site visits.
Coverage Analytics & Network Planning
By combining EO data with elevation models, population trends, and mobility insights, we can support more precise planning of coverage rollouts. This helps reduce overspending on new infrastructure, while also identifying underserved areas where service expansion could deliver both social impact and commercial value.
Operational Integration & Forecasting
Many of the most powerful insights only matter if they are integrated into the systems telecom teams already use. We can develop data pipelines that feed directly into NOC or OSS/BSS environments, enabling functions like demand forecasting at the node level, alerting services and automated compliance reporting.
Early Warning Systems
Automated alert systems can flag anomalies such as sudden structural shifts, encroachment, or disaster risks before they escalate. These early warnings give operators valuable lead time to act and minimize potential service disruptions.
Interactive Dashboards & APIs
Easy-to-use dashboards and plug-and-play APIs that translate complex network and EO analytics into practical tools. Field crews, operations teams, and regulators can access the insights they need in real time, directly within their existing systems and workflows.
