ABOUT LITTLE PLACE LABS
Little Place Labs is a space technology (SpaceTech) startup with a vision of making satellites and space robots intelligent, autonomous and decentralised as we enter into the new era of commercially exploiting space derived insights and resources.
Our initial mission is to develop space-based data processing capabilities for various Earth Observation (EO) applications. We aim to make satellites smarter by enabling satellite edge computing and machine learning in orbit to generate near real-time insights for objects and events of interest on the ground such as wildfires, floods, surveillance and other finance applications.
Our rapidly growing team of mission-driven, space enthusiasts is passionate, innovative, and committed to a better future for planet Earth, the little place that we all call home.
Project Description:
LPL is engaged in various object detection projects using satellite data including RGB, mutli-spectral and SAR, and onboarding processing. The end use cases include surveillance of vessels in the open ocean, tracking of trucks and ground fleets, measuring of emissions & carbon impact etc. The successful candidate would be involved in upcoming milestones such as:
Building Data Pipes and Architecture
Enhancing our machine learning solutions
Testing in a ground lab simulating the environment of a satellite
Deploying our solutions onto a satellite in space
