Global Space-Based Edge Computing Market Insights and Growth Analysis

Space-based edge computing revolutionizes the way we handle data processing in satellite communication by enabling the analysis to occur directly on the satellite itself. Traditionally, the process involves transmitting raw data from the satellite to a terrestrial ground station, where it is subsequently processed before being sent back for user access. This method can lead to significant delays, especially when dealing with the massive volumes of data generated—often in petabytes—by modern satellite missions.
