GPTech is OroraTech’s local partner for the Río Negro wildfire monitoring initiative.
OroraTech’s Wildfire Solution provides thermal intelligence and near-real-time alerts to decision-makers, local firefighters (brigadistas), and emergency planners in Río Negro.
Axel Roenneke is Chief Commercial Officer at OroraTech.
Dr. Ignacio Zuleta has been appointed chief technology and product officer at OroraTech.
As chief technology and product officer, Dr. Ignacio Zuleta will lead OroraTech’s technology strategy and execution.
Under Dr. Ignacio Zuleta’s technical leadership, OroraTech will accelerate innovation across its thermal Earth observation capabilities and further establish itself as a global reference information layer for activity monitoring.
Satellites in the OroraTech and Satellogic constellations began flying with onboard AI accelerators capable of cloud detection, change detection, and basic classification by 2024.
OroraTech owns and operates its own satellites and has also flown its thermal sensing hardware as hosted payloads aboard partner satellites.
Partner satellites can provide greater power and data downlink capabilities, and Kepler’s optical communications stack can reduce data latency for OroraTech customers.
OroraTech grew its constellation from two satellites to over ten in 2025, doubling the areas of Earth it can monitor.
Flying as a hosted payload allows OroraTech to deploy its constellation more quickly because payload integration timelines are much shorter than building an entire satellite.
Achieving a 15-minute revisit rate would position OroraTech to participate in customers’ tip-and-cue workflows by detecting changes and enabling tasking of higher-resolution imagers.
Ignacio Zuleta intends for OroraTech to deploy its payloads at the highest velocity possible as a fundamental change in company strategy.
OroraTech’s current offering provides resolution down to 200 meters.
Ignacio Zuleta was appointed OroraTech’s chief technology and product officer.
OroraTech flew its thermal sensing hardware as a hosted payload aboard Kepler’s optical communications constellation earlier in 2025.
OroraTech aims to grow its constellation to a few hundred satellites to provide worldwide coverage and 15-minute revisit rates with resolution as low as 50 meters.
OroraTech plans to ramp up partner satellite agreements to meet demand rather than wait for its own supply chain to catch up.
OroraTech expects that as many as two-thirds of its sensors might operate on partner satellites.
In 2022, OroraTech launched the first three satellites of the OroraTech Constellation Phase-1 (OTC-P1), including the Forest-1 3U CubeSat demonstrator satellite.
