Orbiter is underpinned by OPIE (Orbiter Planetary Intelligence Engine), a cutting-edge data engine that harnesses raw numeric data from satellites and transforms it into accessible formats for users.

With its groundbreaking visualizations of satellite-acquired Earth data, Orbiter introduces a fresh perspective on viewing this information. Gone are the days of complex and sluggish tools; Orbiter revolutionizes the experience by presenting this data through visually stunning animated overlays encircling a digital globe.

Orbiter's objective is to make the substantial public investment in Earth observation accessible to all. Organizations like ESA and NASA have dedicated significant resources toward developing and launching Earth observation programs. Historically reserved for professional researchers, Orbiter democratizes this valuable data through a user-friendly visual interface that fosters curiosity and exploration.

Powered by Apple's Metal graphics API for optimal performance, Orbiter leverages satellite data acquired through the European Space Agency's Copernicus program API. Please note that Orbiter is currently available exclusively for iOS devices.
