Bengaluru, India, Los Angeles, California, and Las Vegas, Nevada - 30 Jul 2025: Pixxel, a leader in hyperspectral Earth imaging, has partnered with Coactive Science, an AI platform that fuses remote sensing data with real-time sensor and camera feeds, to enable year-round monitoring and valuation of permanent crops across Spain.
Pixxel’s hyperspectral data will power Coactive Science’s monitoring platform with repeatable, high-resolution insights on land use, crop health, and performance. These insights will support some of the world’s leading commodity investors and agricultural insurers, who are increasingly turning to geospatial intelligence to value assets, manage exposure, and align capital with climate-aware strategies and long-term returns.
Among other use cases, one of the first applications being explored is the year-round monitoring of vineyards, olive groves, and other permanent crops in Spain. These high-value agricultural assets require consistent visibility into health, acreage, and productivity, insights that traditional seasonal imagery often cannot provide. With Pixxel’s taskable hyperspectral satellites, Coactive Science will enable continuous, on-demand observation to support long-term valuation and performance tracking.
“As climate and financial pressures intensify, the need for reliable, science-driven monitoring of agricultural assets is greater than ever,” said Awais Ahmed, CEO of Pixxel. “Together with Coactive Science, we’re combining deep scientific insight with hyperspectral imaging to equip stakeholders with the information they need to manage land, food, and capital more effectively.”
Pixxel’s 5‑metre, 24‑hour‑revisit hyperspectral stream plugs directly into our Orbit‑to‑Onsite stack, transforming seasonal snapshots of vineyards into continuous, evidence‑grade intelligence with monthly canopy‑stress, nutrient, and moisture scores that narrow valuation spreads and accelerate loss adjustment for permanent‑crop stakeholders,” said Dr. Debajyoti Ray, Founder and CEO of Coactive Science.
Our cross‑sensor pipeline, that is already flagging harmful algal blooms days ahead, and delivering verified alerts before Switzerland’s recent Birch Glacier collapse, will use Pixxel’s hyperspectral layer to push those early warnings even further, strengthening resilience across food, water, and infrastructure.”
“Coactive Science’s approach connects a growing ecosystem of geospatial technologies, researchers, and commercial users into a unified monitoring stack,” said Aakash Parekh, Chief Commercial Officer at Pixxel. “Their portfolio-based approach to data and tooling is creating resilient, long-term applications while bridging consistent adoption between end users and technology enablers across the entire stack. With Pixxel’s satellite constellation, we’re looking forward to adding a vital layer of high-frequency hyperspectral imaging, integrating seamlessly with many of the same clients and partners already in their network.”
As hyperspectral imaging moves into the mainstream, Pixxel and Coactive Science are helping lay the foundation for scalable, science-backed monitoring systems that can keep pace with the climate and economic shifts shaping agriculture.
