From Satellite to Soil: How Remote Sensing Supports Smarter Agriculture

From monitoring crop health and managing scarce water to tracking pests, forecasting yields, and proving sustainability, satellites are reshaping agriculture. With daily coverage from the Planet Dove constellation, ultra-detailed imagery from Maxar, and Swift Geospatial’s GIS expertise, farmers gain insights that were once impossible to imagine. Remote sensing is bridging the gap between space and soil, creating smarter, more resilient, and more sustainable farming practices worldwide.

What is Regenerative Agriculture?

The idea behind regenerative agriculture is to create a cycle of life that supports both the plants and the animals on the farm, and also helps the environment around it. For example, healthy soil can store more carbon from the air, which is good for the climate. It can also hold more water, which is good for preventing droughts and floods.
