By using massive amounts of new satellite data and pioneering work in artificial intelligence, Vortexa creates an unprecedented view on the global seaborne energy flows in real-time, bringing transparency and efficiency to the energy markets and society as a whole.The ChallengeProcessing thousands of rich data points per second from many vastly different external sources, moving terabytes of data while processing it in real-time, running complex prediction and forecasting AI models while coupling their output into a hybrid human-machine data refinement process and presenting the result through a nimble low-latency SaaS solution used by customers around the globe is no small feat of science and engineering. This processing requires models that can survive the scrutiny of industry experts, data analysts and traders, with the performance, stability, latency and agility a fast-moving startup influencing multi-$m transactions requires.The Data Production Team is responsible for all of Vortexa’s data. It ranges from mixing raw satellite data from 600,000 vessels with rich but incomplete text data, to generating high-value forecasts such as the vessel destination, cargo onboard, ship-to-ship transfer detection, dark vessels, congestion, future prices, etcThe team has built a variety of procedural, statistical and machine learning models that enabled us to provide the most accurate and comprehensive view of energy flows.
