Each member of our team, our partners, and community has something unique, something special that has enabled them to succeed with this technology. It is the idea of grit by Angela Lee Duckworth and the University of Pennsylvania. Grit is the superpower of passion and perseverance. We are voraciously pursuing different angles, and disciplines to simplify and improve the accessibility of data for you and all of our community of users. One of those efforts has been understanding how and why InSAR seems to just click for many of us, and why it’s just out of reach for others.

The further we go into these self-reflection ideas, the more we find the nuance of each of us. But there’s a theme; curiosity and grit have carried us through this incredibly hard year of the pandemic. We’ve collectively endured incredible isolation. We worked from our desks on our own missions, but shared in that global lack of a simple hug, or what seemed like pointless small talk at a meeting. Yet, here we are, with a new sense of resilience to take on the new paradigm of the world around us.
EO59 is here to give you the tools to turn that grit, that curiosity, that resilience into fuel to engage with satellite InSAR. To carry you beyond those moments of intrigue and through the details onto successfully implementing this technology in a way that will transform your business.
Transformation isn’t painless, it’s an adventure, and it’s in the DNA of who we are to seek out that frontier and grab it.
