These stratospheric robots <strong>are designed to deliver ultra-high-resolution aerial imagery, reaching 7 cm<\/strong> , a level of detail unprecedented in the industry.   <\/p>\n\n<p>This network of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/nasa-tests-autonomous-construction-robots\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"127013\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">autonomous robots<\/a><\/strong> covers vast areas, capturing up to 1,000 km\u00b2 per flight, and is positioned to change the way insurance, urban planning and government agencies manage risk and disaster information.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How stratospheric robots can help insurers?<\/h2>\n\n<p>The breakthrough comes at a critical time for the U.S. insurance industry, which is facing unprecedented challenges due to climate change. In 2023, <strong>U.S. insurers suffered billions in losses<\/strong> due to increasingly frequent and destructive <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/hurricane-milton-closes-gas-stations-in-florida\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"194694\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">weather events<\/a><\/strong> . Hurricanes, tornadoes and wildfires have increased uncertainty, forcing many insurers to pull out of high-risk markets such as Florida, Texas and California.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Near Space\u2019s solution is presented as a response to this crisis, providing detailed aerial imagery updated on a quarterly basis. This frequency of updates allows insurers to <strong>accurately assess weather risks and adjust policies<\/strong> based on the most up-to-date information, which could help mitigate market abandonment and improve coverage for properties in high-risk areas. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Near Space Labs offers zero emissions and high precision<\/h2>\n\n<p>What sets Near Space apart from other solutions on the market is its zero-emission technology. <strong>Swift robots operate at altitudes of between 18,000 and 26,000 metres<\/strong> , using a combination of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/video-tv\/operaciones-en-mina-de-oro-valentine\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/video-tv\/operaciones-en-mina-de-oro-valentine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">stratospheric balloons<\/a><\/strong> and low-impact autonomous systems. This offers an economical and efficient alternative to traditional aerial data collection methods, which often involve high costs and considerable environmental impact. <\/p>\n\n<p>Unlike conventional aerial data collection methods, which have been in use since the 1950s, Near Space Labs offers a much more advanced and environmentally friendly option. This technology facilitates the collection of data with great precision and represents a significant step forward towards a more sustainable future in <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/nasa-and-epa-atmospheric-pollution-by-no2\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"177644\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Earth observation<\/a><\/strong> . <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Innovation in aerial observation and geospatial data<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<p>As well as benefiting the insurance industry, the stratospheric robot network has a potential impact on other sectors such as urban planning and infrastructure management. High-resolution images allow city planners and local authorities <strong>to closely monitor the condition of properties and land<\/strong> , facilitating the planning of new infrastructure and the updating of essential geospatial data. <\/p>\n\n<p>In short, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/feed\/update\/urn:li:activity:7265857562867118080\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/feed\/update\/urn:li:activity:7265857562867118080\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Near Space Labs<\/a><\/strong> is changing the landscape of aerial monitoring with its network of Swift robots and opening up new possibilities for how <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/articulo\/risks-at-sea-wind-energy\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"articulo\" data-id=\"138202\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">climate risks<\/a><\/strong> are managed, how damage is assessed, and how cities of the future are planned.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Follow us on social networks and don&#8217;t miss any of our publications!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@inspenet\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YouTube<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspenet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Inspenetnetwork\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">X<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@inspenet?_t=8qqIL6dRGNR&amp;_r=1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TikTok<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20241121549156\/en\/Near-Space-Labs-Announces-Nationwide-Deployment-of-Stratospheric-Robots-Featuring-New-Industry-Leading-7cm-Resolution-Aerial-Imagery\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20241121549156\/en\/Near-Space-Labs-Announces-Nationwide-Deployment-of-Stratospheric-Robots-Featuring-New-Industry-Leading-7cm-Resolution-Aerial-Imagery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Near Space Labs via BusinessWire<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Near Space Labs deploys network of Swift robots with 7cm aerial imagery, transforming climate and disaster risk assessment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9014,"featured_media":211149,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13030,13058],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-211156","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-industry","categoria_noticias-robotics"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/211156","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9014"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=211156"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/211156\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/211149"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=211156"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=211156"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=211156"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
