American Marconi Wireless News - Spexi Orthomosaic Drone Imagery Now Available on the SkyWatch Platform

With this initial launch, SkyWatch users can access Spexi's stitched, orthorectified top-down orthomosaic imagery across North America purpose-built for overlays, planning, and geospatial workflows, through SkyWatch's EXPLORE and HUB applications and API. The integration offers a high temporal and spatial resolution supplement to traditional capture methods, enabling organizations to operationalize hyper-local drone datasets to augment existing data. The total available dataset is expected to scale to hundreds of cities by the end of 2026.

Developed by Spexi's in-house team of engineers, the company's orthomosaics capture 2.8 cm GSD ultra-high-resolution top-down views that are fully calibrated, standardized, and ready for rapid ingestion into analytics and modeling pipelines. Customers rely on Spexi data for a wide range of use cases, including powering physical AI, large geospatial model training, infrastructure monitoring, land-use planning, insurance assessment, and energy and utilities analysis.

"Making Spexi's orthomosaic imagery available on SkyWatch dramatically lowers the friction of accessing ultra-high-resolution drone data," said Bill Lakeland, CEO of Spexi. "Spexi has always focused on transforming drone imagery collection into easy-to-use data products. Now customers can programmatically request pinpoint coverage through SkyWatch and integrate it instantly into their workflows."

The addition of Spexi's data further strengthens SkyWatch's role as a unified access layer for Earth observation data, bringing together satellite, aerial, and now standardized drone imagery through a single commercial and technical interface.

"SkyWatch is built to remove barriers between organizations and the data they need to make decisions," said James Slifierz, CEO and Co-Founder of SkyWatch. "By adding Spexi's orthomosaic drone imagery to our platform, we're giving customers a powerful new way to capture fine-grained, decision-grade detail and integrate it seamlessly into their geospatial and analytics environments."

SkyWatch is offering premium pricing on Spexi orthomosaic imagery to select customers. Contact SkyWatch for additional details. Additional Spexi products, such as standard multi-view imagery, oblique imagery, and 360-degree panoramas, may be made available on the SkyWatch platform in future phases.
