About
ConstellR (founded in 2020) is a spin-off from the Fraunhofer Institute, developing a unique satellite constellation to measure land surface temperatures with unprecedented accuracy. By capturing thermal infrared data at the field level, ConstellR enables farmers and governments to monitor crop water stress, optimize irrigation, and support global food security in the face of climate change. The company’s thermal intelligence also informs urban planning and defense by detecting heat patterns and anomalies. Headquartered in Freiburg, Germany, ConstellR has grown rapidly, launching its first SkyBee satellites in 2023–2025 to establish itself as a key provider of thermal Earth observation data for climate resilience and precision agriculture.
