Hermes is a single company project of TAITUS, a company with a 12+ years success track record providing services to the most relevant players in the space sector (e.g. ESA, THALES, AIRBUS) and big companies (e.g. PETROBRAS). Moreover, our talented professional team is composed by renown experts in the Space sector with Deep experience in the Earth Observation segment.
Access to data from satellites, particularly Earth Observation (EO) data, has the power to impact everyday lives for billions of people across the world. Whatever the final application is, the truth is that the complexity of obtaining a proper stream of data (usually coming from different satellites/organisations) valid for any of the described applications is overwhelming. Space involved companies, and specially SMEs need accurate models of all elements involved, Deep experience of Earth observation, and most importantly the right technology to use and build the software they need.
Hermes is a software development ecosystem that allows our customers in the Space sector to accurately and cost- effectively easily build applications to plan and manage satellite-data acquisition based projects and businesses.
1. Mathematical and physical models successfully proven on-the-field on rigorous missions (e.g. Sentinel program)
2. Our high quality Software Development Kit (SDK) let our clients save more than 65% of development cost, thanks to its high modularity and our SDK license cost is 50% cheaper than those from our competitors with equivalent features.
More importantly, we are the only company in the market able that offers timeliness.
1. Our proprietary General Purpose Graphic Processing Unit (GPGPU) algorithmic (10x-100x boost in processing speed) let our clients obtain the results of the complex calculations involved in satellite-data acquisition missions in a few minutes instead of waiting several hours, which impacts satellite-data consumption strategy (75% costs reduction).
2. Moreover, this is a unique selling point that none of our competitors can offer and our main competitive advantage.
3. Furthermore, timeliness is critical in applications such as disaster warning systems, where response time can be measured in terms of human lives, or natural disaster management, such as oil-spills where response time is critical to minimise the long-term environmental impact.
