Remote sensing satellites produce massive amounts of data of the earth every day. This earth observation data can be used to solve real world problems in many different fields. Finnish space data company Terramonitor has been using satellite data to produce new information for its customers. The Process for producing valuable information includes finding raw data, analysing it and visualizing it according to the client’s needs. This process contains a significant amount of manual work that is done at local workstations. Because satellite data can quickly become very big, it is not efficient to use unscalable processes that require lot of waiting time. This thesis is trying to solve the problem by introducing an architecture for cloud based real-time processing platform that allows satellite image analysis to be done in cloud environment. The architectural model is built using microservice patterns to ensure that the solution is scalable to match the changing demand.
