Always-On Crop Intelligence, Even Beyond Terrestrial Network
Plan-S connects agricultural sensors to space, so farms can capture critical field data anywhere.
Using Connecta IoT Modems and the Connecta IoT Network, satellites designed and operated by Plan-S, soil and weather measurements flow directly from remote land to actionable insights in the cloud.
THE PROBLEM
Agriculture needs data everywhere, connectivity rarely is.
Agriculture needs continuous, ground-truth data to operate efficiently, but large and remote fields often lack the infrastructure required to capture and move that data reliably. When connectivity is missing, decisions become reactive and expensive.
Coverage gaps
Many plots fall outside reliable terrestrial network service.
No infrastructure
Remote areas may lack stable electricity and network backhaul.
Manual dependency
Field teams rely on site visits, increasing cost and safety risk.
Delayed decisions
Irrigation, fertilization, and pest-control actions are made late or based on assumptions.
Resource waste
Over/under-watering and inefficient input use reduce yield potential and sustainability.
Limited scalability
Expanding monitoring to new regions becomes complex without a repeatable connectivity layer.
VALUE AT A GLANCE
From Inaccessible Land to Connected Smart Farms.
Soil moisture, temperature, pH, and meteorological conditions from connected agricultural sensors
THE SOLUTIONS
The End-to-End Data Path, From Sensor to Actionable Insight.
Plan-S enables an end-to-end crop monitoring data path built on the Connecta IoT Network and Connecta IoT Modems:
Sense in the field
Agricultural sensors continuously measure soil and meteorological conditions, capturing the inputs that drive irrigation, fertilization, and pest-control decisions.
Transmit via Connecta IoT Modems
Sensor data is collected through Connecta IoT Modems, built to support remote, low-infrastructure operations.
Connect directly to the Connecta IoT Network
Data is transmitted directly to Connecta IoT Network satellites.
Process in the Core Network
Messages are routed through the Plan-S Core Network, ensuring secure, scalable delivery from orbit to cloud.
Analyze and act
Data is transformed into meaningful information on the analysis platform, enabling precision irrigation planning, fertilizer application timing, and earlier interventions for crop health and pest risks.
THE SOLUTIONS
The Operational Impact
Enables precise irrigation planning based on real soil moisture and weather conditions, reducing water waste.
Improves fertilizer application timing and targeting with soil and environmental measurements, increasing efficiency.
Supports earlier pest and stress detection by revealing abnormal trends sooner, reducing yield loss risk.
Reduces field visits by shifting monitoring and decision-making to remote operations, lowering operational cost and safety exposure.
Increases yield consistency by moving from reactive interventions to data-driven, timely actions.
