Delaware, Ohio, Los Angeles, California, and Bengaluru, India<\/strong> \u2013 Pixxel<\/a>, a leading hyperspectral imaging and Earth Observation company, and HeartlandGIS<\/a>, a prominent name in agricultural GIS consulting and mapping, have announced a new partnership today.<\/p>\n

Under this collaboration, Heartland GIS will leverage data from Pixxel\u2019s 5m hyperspectral satellites to develop a new suite of analytics products, addressing key agricultural challenges like algal blooms, chemical utilization on farms, and crop stressors at the nutrient, pest, and water levels.<\/p>\n

\u201cHere in the farm belt, it is vital that the data we use has the ability to be accurate and actionable. The difference between even 2 – 3 days can make a huge impact when dealing with agricultural challenges. That is why Pixxel\u2019s commitment to providing truly transformational hyperspectral analysis and technology in near-real time is a game changer.\u201dsaid Todd Tucky, Owner \/ Senior Consultant,  Heartland GIS. <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re excited to partner with Heartland GIS, a legacy player that continuously adapts and innovates to meet the evolving needs of the agricultural sector,\u201d said Awais Ahmed, Founder and CEO of Pixxel<\/strong>. \u201cBy combining our cutting-edge hyperspectral capabilities with Heartland GIS\u2019s deep expertise, we aim to deliver actionable insights that will significantly enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability.\u201d<\/p>\n

Pixxel’s sensors capture up to 250+ spectral bands at 5m resolution with daily revisit capabilities. These unique features enable robust change detection across hundreds of vegetative characteristics, empowering solution providers to develop highly nuanced narrowband indices. Combined with flexible tasking, simplified pricing, and a customisable band set selection, Pixxel\u2019s technology will enhance the diversity, accuracy, and reliability of Heartland GIS\u2019 product offerings.<\/p>\n

“We are thrilled to provide hyperspectral data and support Heartland GIS in expanding its analytics and product suite for corn, soybean, and other commodity crops,” said Aakash Parekh, Chief Commercial Officer at Pixxel<\/strong>. “Hyperspectral imaging is particularly valuable for its ability to detect biotic and abiotic stresses much earlier than conventional satellites and at a sub-species level. It also has the capability to detect algal blooms and soil nutrient distribution over vast areas, enabling improved agricultural performance on a state-wide scale.”<\/p>\n

Pixxel has raised US$71 million and works with 50+ early adopter customers worldwide. Having already operated three hyperspectral satellites in space, Pixxel will launch six more in Q1 2025, aiming to build a comprehensive health monitor for the planet.<\/p>\n

Heartland GIS was founded in 2009 and focuses on utilizing GIS technologies to help for the betterment of people and their shared resources. Heartland works with many environmental, agricultural, and preservation groups, as well as federal, state, and local governments. Heartland GIS is recognized as a leader in providing strategic direction for facilitating and coordinating research, policies, technologies and resources for spatial information collection, documentation, discovery, distribution, exchange and maintenance in support of our Nation\u2019s spatial data infrastructure.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
