Satellite-derived car count data for quality assessment

The RetailWatch service aims at providing accurate and meaningful satellite-derived car count data to financial practitioners for 65+ European store chains, for them to ingest into their financial back-testing, trading, equities portfolio research and data platforms. The data can then be used standalone or in conjunction with other data-sets to predict and validate predictions of earnings, stock price and other key retailer performance indicators. The service mainly targets European firms but can be useful to anyone trading European cash equities. The car count process, originating from earth observation satellite, applies automated deep and machine learning to count at scale.
