Updated July 4, 2026Ursa Space Systems provides analytics-as-a-service built on synthetic-aperture-radar (SAR) data, pooled from what it calls a Virtual Constellation of commercial partners and supplemented with optical, infrared, multispectral, and hyperspectral sources. Founded in 2014 and headquartered in Ithaca, New York, Ursa owns no satellites of its own — its model is to aggregate third-party constellations and add an analytics layer.
The company reports processing more than 50 million SAR images to deliver on-demand insights across global security, maritime activity, energy and economy, and infrastructure, with automated tasking and a conversational interface. A 2026 partnership with SATIM adds AI object detection and classification — vessels, aircraft, and land vehicles — applied to SAR data.
Ursa has raised roughly 66.7 million dollars over seven rounds. Its security and maritime surveillance work is dual-use, it is reliant on third-party data suppliers, and it is worth being honest that much of its marquee AI object detection is partner-provided through the SATIM partnership rather than an in-house model.
