U.S. Remote Sensing Technology Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report By Technology (Active Remote Sensing, Passive Remote Sensing), By Application, By Platform, And Segment Forecasts, 2023 - 2030

The U. S. remote sensing technology market size is expected to reach USD 10.70 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 9.8% from 2023 to 2030. Increasing adoption of remote sensing technology from farmers as it aids them in understanding crop type classification, assessing crop growth, and estimating crop yield, which is a major factor expected to drive the growth of the U. S. market for remote sensing technology. Modern food production and agriculture systems face pressure due to dwindling land and water availability for irrigation, climate change, and increased production costs.

Technological and scientific innovations are required to secure sufficient food for the fast-growing global population. For instance, NASA Acres Consortium, NASA’s U. S.-focused agriculture and food security program, focused on applying satellite Earth Observation (EO) information to the agricultural and food security challenges faced by farmers, ranchers, and agrifood system stakeholders based in the U. S. To boost the U. S. agricultural sector, NASA Acres collaborated with individuals across the farm sector to develop EO-based data and solutions. To provide U. S. agriculture decision-makers with the advantages of NASA data and tools, the consortium model brings together the public and private sectors and enables flexible collaborations and quick action.

Likewise, GIS and remote sensing collectively help environmental decision-makers and scientists optimize global data and information sharing, enable resource allocation, and promote cost-efficient and effective environmental risk assessment and management practices. As industrialization and population growth put more pressure on the Earth's environment, remote sensing, and GIS are expected to become critical for environmental risk assessment and management.

Remote sensing poses several challenges, despite making complex issues more accessible and usable. Managing massive amounts of data in complex data formats with difficult processing is one of the main problems. These challenges are expected to limit its adoption among end users, further limiting the growth of the U. S. remote sensing technology industry.

U. S. Remote Sensing Technology Market Report Highlights
