MXR-CS-grab use 11/20 Keeping up with change As the leading source for satellite imagery, Maxar offered Grab quality at the speed it needed to keep its maps up to date. Our constellation collects more than 3 million square kilometers of high-resolution satellite imagery every day, continuously growing our 100+ petabyte global imagery archive. With cloud-based, on-demand access to this archive via SecureWatch plus Grab's proprietary AI, it has never been easier to verify, correct and add map attributes. info@maxar.com maxar.com Quality coverage Driving positive impact at scale Grab purchased Metro basemaps over its largest markets, gaining high-resolution large-area image layers with annual refresh to identify change that may affect operations. This enabled Grab to complete unmapped or outdated areas of large cities—delivering a resolution at which Grab's AI could detect buildings, roads and other infrastructure accurately. For every place in between, Grab subscribed to SecureWatch, Maxar's cloud-based platform for on-demand access to our global imagery archive. SecureWatch offered Grab map analysts a data haven, providing anytime, anywhere access to the high-quality and map-ready data needed to improve Grab's product. Together, Metro basemaps and SecureWatch created a mapping solution that enabled Grab to scale and enhance its proprietary AI capabilities to drive maximum value across the company. The ability to continuously update the map for accuracy has enabled better estimation of travel and delivery times and allocation efficiency to complete ride bookings and deliveries. "This new solution using Maxar satellite imagery, combined with our GPS data, has enabled us to build and deploy our own AI models to detect undocumented road segments and associated road attributes, buildings and land covers. Our map analysts now have access to the high- quality map data they need to improve customer experiences across our company and the region". — Hannes Kruppa Head of Data Science, Machine Learning and Geo Grab is changing lives. The everything app offers previously out-of-reach opportunities for economic growth and personal mobility to millions of people. Maxar is proud to partner with organizations who are leveraging our technology for a better world.
