Although VITO’s services provide a lot of added value to their clients, they lacked an easy way to increase their visibility. VITO wanted an online marketplace that would allow them to advertise services to a wider audience, helping the general public. They asked API Suite if they could develop the perfect Remote Sensing Marketplace Platform.
This extensive Marketplace with monetisation was built on top of our API Suite product framework, with a full open-source contribution. Using this project, VITO were successful in creating the perfect services offering, widening their reach with the general public by including resourceful features such as billing and reporting.
The Terrascope Marketplace allows you to share an algorithm or workflow that you developed with the user community. It takes away the IT aspects of publishing a service, so that you can entirely focus on the algorithm’s development. Publishing your algorithm as a service will give it greater visibility and expose it to a larger audience that can give feedback.
The Marketplace relies on standardized web interfaces, so users can access a service in an easy manner. A visual description of a service is published, to give an attractive overview of the capabilities.
“By combining API Suite’s expert knowledge on marketplaces and our expertise in earth observation, we have created a beautiful online marketplace where we can start advertising our services to the general public. During this project, APISuite assisted us in tackling some of our biggest challenges, which resulted in extending our online service offering with features such as billing and reporting.”
