Ursa Space Systems
Ursa Space Systems is an Ithaca, New York-based geospatial intelligence company that turns commercial satellite data — primarily Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery, combined with electro-optical, RF, AIS, and other ground-truth feeds — into decision-ready insight reports. The company operates a GeoAI platform branded "From pixels to insights" that fuses 90+ geospatial data sources and ingests imagery from a global network of commercial SAR and EO satellite operators, then applies in-house remote-sensing, data science, and GIS expertise to deliver answers about what is happening on the ground at specific places and times. Ursa Space serves U.S. Government customers — including U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command (SSC) under INDOPACOM, AFRICOM, and SOUTHCOM, the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) under the Luno A and Luno B delivery orders, the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), and humanitarian-aid agencies — as well as commercial enterprise customers in energy, commodities, supply chain, maritime, and insurance. Reporting domains span security and defense (border monitoring, military activity, maritime, dark-vessel and ship-to-ship transfer detection, airstrip monitoring), environmental and disaster response (deforestation, earthquakes, flooding, wildfires), and infrastructure and industry monitoring (construction, mining, oil and gas supply chain, power generation, space situational awareness). The platform is currently in beta and Ursa Space does not operate a public developer portal, OpenAPI reference, SDK, or self-service signup; engagement is sales-led through [email protected] and tailored to government and enterprise contracts.
Index entry only — little beyond a description and a link, and nothing machine-readable enough for an agent to act on without a human reading the site first.
API Evangelist profiles Ursa Space Systems the way a machine reads it — 1 machine-readable artifact, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Ursa Space Systems scores 6.8/100 (minimal), with a separate agent-readiness read of 0/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.
How we profile Ursa Space Systems
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Ursa Space Systems. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
Security Posture 1
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
