NewSpace Intelligence for a sustainable Earth

Munich-based OroraTech provides NewSpace Intelligence for a sustainable Earth. The company’s wildfire service is designed to inform you of the earliest detection of hotspots and allows you to monitor areas at risk of wildfires.
The company launched its first satellite FOREST-1 with SpaceX in January 2022. The satellite allows for significantly higher accuracy and faster global coverage while cutting down data processing time and delivering high-resolution images at a far lower cost than previously possible.
In June 2022 the company announced that it has successfully achieved the mission goals for FOREST-1. For more information, please visit the OroraTech website:
