About Us
Our Approach
Our Mission
At CyStellar we are assembling a great team of big data specialists that are crunching large amounts of data to help data-intensive organizations to maintain their competitive advantage. When a situation is a complex mixture of objective facts and subjective beliefs, there is no way other than through logical inquiry, statistical treatment and objective intelligence for us to comprehend what is not readily apparent.
Our Story
As our company name implies we believe in space exploration. Many of our team members have space related technology background. The CyStellar team realized the untapped potential of military and space-related technology for civilian and non-space related applications and concluded that our mission on Earth is not finished yet. The team postulated that by combining satellite data with airborne data and data from ground sensors, a very comprehensive and dynamic model of the underlying physical phenomena would emerge. The CyStellar team was truly excited about the potential of a platform that integrated ground, air, and space data for civilian applications. A number of potential application areas quickly emerged, and it will be our pleasure to introduce you to our application portfolio.
