Space start-ups Pixxel and SatSure on Wednesday said they have signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to work on technology to improve crop and water management for agriculture in India.

Under the pact, SatSure will use Pixxel satellite imagery for building data products by combining it with agricultural data sets to help in improving the existing crop and water management analytics, according to a joint statement.

"This collaboration will not only provide SatSure access to Pixxel's high quality satellite imagery data but also enable them to monitor agricultural farms, proper disbursement of farmer loans, assess flood and other natural calamity in real-time with location specific insights," it said.
