Omanos combines downstream satellite data analysis with community intelligence and other ground data sources to identify and monitor the social and environmental impacts of critical infrastructure projects, in order to provide verified, accessible, and inclusive insights into the realities on the ground. Our agile data products are built on a combination of automated and human analysis, designed to be accessible and actionable in different contexts, from legal arbitration, to policy design, to advocacy.

Omanos Analytics is a Glasgow-based space technology start-up delivering space data knowledge to support sustainable development. Our mission is to use space data to improve transparency and reduce risk around the social and environmental impacts of critical infrastructure projects. Through our global networks with NGOs and communities, we’ve worked on cases relating to mining, hydrocarbons, logging, agriculture, sugar and rubber plantations, looking at issues including forced displacement, water access, crop damage, deforestation, and mobility. Our data products have been instrumental in a range of scenarios, including an arbitration case heard by the Compliance Ombudsman for the World Bank’s commercial investment arm (IFC).
