I almost worked for a satellite imaging company that does this stuff. It kind of bothered me that rather than providing farmers or the government with this extremely rich agricultural data, they were just contracted out to specific hedge funds that would use the data to give them an edge in trading. I feel like that's not the best use of that kind of data to society
