en.Wedoany.com Reported - Facing the risks posed by climate change to agriculture, farmers and agribusinesses are seeking more effective data support. Spire Global recently announced that it has upgraded its agricultural intelligence services, adding soil moisture monitoring and weather forecast capabilities of up to 45 days.

Headquartered in Vienna, Virginia, USA, the company is a satellite data specialist. The new platform integrates over 40 years of historical climate records and utilizes near-real-time satellite observation data. Through an artificial intelligence-driven sub-seasonal model, the service can predict weather and soil condition changes for the coming weeks.

Spire Global's soil moisture monitoring service relies on Global Navigation Satellite System technology, including radio occultation and reflectometry methods, with signals collected by the company's own satellite constellation. This system can identify soil moisture anomalies worldwide, providing early warnings for crop health.

The data is delivered via an Application Programming Interface and can be easily integrated into digital farming tools, agricultural insurance models, and government agricultural systems. Application scenarios cover irrigation scheduling, fertilization timing optimization, and crop yield prediction.

Traditional methods of obtaining soil moisture data rely on ground-based sensor networks, which have limited coverage and uneven distribution. Spire Global's space-based monitoring approach offers a broader alternative for global agricultural planning and risk assessment.

Spire Global is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol SPIR and primarily provides Earth observation data and analytics services to commercial and government clients.
