Related work in environmental monitoring was also highlighted through a collaboration involving NUS-CRISP and Singapore-based Kumi Analytics. The partnership will focus on linking satellite imagery with ground data to support carbon baselining and reporting for blue carbon ecosystems such as mangroves and seagrass.
A slew of partnerships was unveiled at the opening of Space Summit 2026 in Singapore as the city-state announced plans to launch its national space agency on April 1. The initiatives span satellite-based climate monitoring, secure communications, next-generation connectivity and workforce development
Among the agreements, Singapore start-up Arkadiah Technology and Golden Agri-Resources are signing a contract to use satellite remote-sensing data to develop digital measurement, reporting and verification tools for carbon quantification. The project is aimed at improving the monitoring and protection of tropical forests using multi-modal satellite data.
