IoT application with satellite
IoT application with satellite
We deliver seamless communication and control for high value assets in remote environments.
How We Can Support You
Connectivity Without Limits
Total Control Over Your Data
Cloudloop gives you real time visibility and management of your IoT devices, airtime, and data, all through a single platform. With API-first integration, you can automate workflows, control costs, and ensure your data is exactly where you need it, when you need it.
Scalable, Future-Proof Hardware
We design and build our own satellite IoT and tracking devices, ensuring they are rugged, power efficient, and optimized for real world applications. Our modular approach means you can scale from a single unit to a full fleet with minimal integration effort.
Reliable and Secure Data Transmission
Our unique Delivery Network enhances data security, while providing unparalleled insight into deployed devices. With end-to-end encryption and customizable security levels, your data stays protected while flowing seamlessly between devices and applications.
How It Works
The Ground Control IoT Tech Stack
These are the building blocks of the solutions we build for customers. It starts with understanding where your assets are, and whether they’re moving around; data volumes, data security, any power constraints, and the time-criticality of the receipt of your data.
From there we can build all, or elements of, the gateway: connecting sensors, delivering edge processing, and providing the means of communicating with the satellite network. We work with multiple satellite network operators to make sure our customers get the most suitable combination of data throughput, latency, coverage and cost.
Our powerful platform Cloudloop delivers subscription, device and data management for customers. Everything is available as a simplified and well documented API for seamless integration with existing workflows.
Empowering Industry
Environmental
For research teams and government agencies, we turn hostile, off-grid locations into routine data points, streaming measurements for flood risk, water quality, soil moisture and even iceberg and sea ice movement in near real time.
Products to support this sector
Utilities
Field teams, lone workers and mobile assets stay on the map with satellite tracking and two way messaging, while Cloudloop gives you a single place to manage airtime, devices and data. The result: fewer site visits, faster fault response, and a clearer picture of every asset you operate.
Products to support this sector
Renewables
The same platform tracks maintenance crews, normalises telemetry and routes it into your existing tools via Cloudloop. That means safer site visits, better production insight and fewer surprises, whether your assets are offshore, up a valley, or in the middle of nowhere.
Products to support this sector
Maritime
For merchant shipping, our Assured PNT (Positioning, Navigation and Timing) solutions offer a robust alternative when GPS is jammed, spoofed or otherwise unavailable, ensuring continuity of safe navigation. Complementing this, our out of band management services keep you connected to critical onboard systems even when your primary satcoms are offline, and allow you to separate IT and OT networks for stronger cyber resilience and operational control.
Products to support this sector
Military & Defense
For covert or high-risk operations, our RockSTAR Burst paging service enables near-zero RF messaging to reduce the risk of detection, while our mobile satellite internet delivers dependable bandwidth for emergency and mission critical use. Even when conventional networks are congested or degraded, commanders and teams can still move, communicate and coordinate with confidence.
