Operates a multipurpose nanosatellite constellation delivering weather, aviation, and RF intelligence data via space-based sensors and ground infrastructure

About

Spire Global designs, manufactures, and operates one of the world's largest multipurpose nanosatellite constellations, with over 100 LEMUR satellites in low Earth orbit. The company collects atmospheric, aviation, and radio frequency data using GNSS radio occultation, space-based ADS-B receivers, and RF geolocation sensors, processing these observations into analytics products delivered through subscription APIs.

Core data verticals include weather and climate intelligence, global flight tracking, and space reconnaissance for signal detection and geolocation. The company also operates Spire Space Services, a platform enabling third parties to deploy custom payloads on its satellite bus and leverage its global ground station network and constellation management infrastructure.

Spire serves government agencies including NASA, NOAA, the NRO, and European Space Agency, alongside commercial customers in energy, logistics, agriculture, and insurance. The company manufactures satellites at its facility in Glasgow, Scotland, and maintains offices across the United States, United Kingdom, Luxembourg, Germany, Canada, and Singapore. Founded in 2012, Spire is publicly traded on the NYSE under ticker SPIR.
