EarthDaily Data Meets CEOS Analysis Ready Data Standard

KUALA LUMPUR, March 13 (Bernama) -- EarthDaily, a global Earth observation company, announced its data products have achieved CEOS Analysis Ready Data (CEOS-ARD) compliance, a globally recognised standard set by the Committee on Earth Observation Satellites (CEOS).

This milestone confirms that EarthDaily data meets rigorous international requirements for radiometric calibration, geometric correction, metadata completeness, and interoperability, enabling immediate quantitative analysis with minimal additional user processing.

According to EarthDaily in a statement, this compliance was achieved prior to the full commercial availability of its complete constellation, a rare feat for a commercial Earth observation system.

“This achievement validates the scientific foundation of our data. CEOS-ARD compliance confirms we are delivering science-grade data at commercial scale,” said EarthDaily Chief Executive Officer, Don Osborne in a statement.

The CEOS-ARD framework helps address the persistent challenge in Earth observation where users often lack the infrastructure and expertise required to process raw imagery. Systematic provision of CEOS-ARD reduces that burden and supports more effective decision-making.

EarthDaily’s architecture was intentionally designed to ensure continuity with established scientific archives, enabling comparability and compatibility with Landsat and Sentinel data records. This design allows users to seamlessly integrate EarthDaily data into existing time-series analyses while benefiting from enhanced spectral diversity and daily revisit.

Compliance signals several key deliverables from EarthDaily, including science-grade correction, interoperable datasets structured for robust time-series analysis, and immediate usability for advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) workflows.

With six additional satellites launching in May and continued expansion later this year, the EarthDaily Constellation will enter commercial operations in Summer 2026, delivering daily, consistent global coverage supported by this compliant data.

This milestone reinforces EarthDaily’s position as a commercial provider bridging scientific rigour with scalable, AI-ready Earth observation infrastructure.
