Geopera research: validated Earth observation science

Bathymetry

Validated

Seabed depth from optical imagery, checked against ICESat-2 laser photons and airborne LiDAR, with an uncertainty estimate on every pixel.

Imagery Processing

In every order

The automated pipeline behind every Geopera order: ortho, pansharpening, atmospheric correction, and mosaicing in one gapless flow we call Legato.

World Models

In progress

We train JEPA-style self-supervised models on our imagery archive to learn how Earth's surface looks and changes. That underpins our change detection.

User Experience

Ongoing

Field studies of how practitioners find, order, and use imagery. What we learn shapes how Pera Portal works.

The capture, and the depth computed from it

Drag the divider: on the left is the satellite capture of the Bahamas validation scene, on the right is the seabed depth we computed from it, with an uncertainty estimate on every pixel.

True-colour satellite capture of a clear atoll lagoon in the Bahamas, turquoise shallows inside a reef rim on dark open water.
The same scene as Geopera satellite-derived bathymetry, seabed depth coloured from pale shallows through green to dark blue in deeper water.
