2、dern enterprise and consumer applications.Yet despite the growth in geospatial data creation and,subsequently,the tools to conduct geospatial analysis,working with this type of information remains complex and the number of products limited.This is in large part due to the broader industry-wide trend
3、 of market consolidation amongst existing incumbents and well-funded technology startups.3 This points to a conflicting theme within the geospatial stack:companies that begin as a modular technology stack(unbundled)then evolve into a vertically integrated software solution(bundled).The new“As-a-serv
4、ice”paradigm has unlocked scalable modular development across compute,storage,application programing interfaces(APIs),etc.and is accelerating the pace of innovation.In this playbook we will walk through our thesis,which analyzes geospatial intelligence(GEOINT)through the lens of technology layers:In
5、frastructure,Distribution,and Applications.This framework helps us connect the dots from the origin and constraints of the geospatial stack to evolution and inflection within the market.It also helps us see the larger role that space-based technology plays in an ecosystem that intersects with the mo
