HomePort

HomePort is an integrated ground segment service designed to accelerate satellite data delivery, from downlink to market distribution. HomePort couples a virtual ground station network with a privacy-oriented storage and processing architecture, streamlining the process to receive, ingest, process and deliver satellite data.

Satellite operators can use the HomePort platform to create a virtual ground segment for their mission by renting station capacity on a real-time marketplace. HomePort then automatically routes the satellite data from the stations straight to the cloud for processing.

HomePort is suitable for:

• Space startups or nascent space agencies looking for a scalable, easily deployable ground station network;
• Constellation operators looking for faster delivery of data to end users;
• Space agencies seeking a configurable ground segment service in line with internal or budget requirements;
• Ground station operators looking to generate revenue through their stations.

Satellite operators can continuously optimize their ground segment, as new capacity becomes available: any station with relevant capabilities can join HomePort and offer its services without specific hardware or brokerage. The HomePort ground segment offers two main types of station rental: per pass or per minute.
