Welcome to CGI’s "Perspectives on Space" podcast series, where we explore the space industry in conversation with CGI domain experts from across the globe. Since completing our first space project in 1974, we’ve developed advanced systems and software for government, military, scientific, academic and commercial space initiatives, and have supported the missions of more than 1,000 space satellites.Increasingly, space data-enabled solutions are part of daily life. Location-based services, weather forecasting and navigation systems, available on almost every mobile device, are just a few examples. The opportunities to use space data to help government and industry address key challenges such as climate change, environmental sustainability and net-zero continue to expand, along with evolving security and privacy requirements. We explore these topics and more in our podcast series.
