Company
Wyvern
High-res hyperspectral pictures of Earth from space
We build satellites that capture the highest resolution hyperspectral images of Earth at a cost 100x less than traditional telescope-based systems. Our product delivers detailed spectral data that helps climate researchers and industrial users monitor the Earth more effectively.
We live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and after YC the company would remain based here.
We chose to stay in Edmonton because our team is here and the local space and tech community supports us. Moving to YC would be temporary for the program, but we plan to keep the company rooted where we have built our core capabilities.
