Spire Global, Inc. (NYSE: SPIR) (“Spire” or “the Company”), a
global provider of space-based data, analytics and space services,
was awarded a CA $1.41 million contract by the Government of Canada
(GoC) for the provision of global automatic identification system
(AIS) ship tracking data. The one-year contract includes options
for two additional years, extending the total potential contract
value to nearly CA $4.23 million.
“We are proud to continue our partnership with the Government of
Canada, providing them with our AIS data services to gain unrivaled
coverage of the open ocean and shores,” said John Lusk, general
manager of maritime, Spire. “This contract reflects the trust that
government agencies worldwide place in our technology and our
commitment to delivering reliable, near real-time data that meets
their stringent requirements.”
Under the contract, Spire will share its real-time global ship
tracking data, providing unparalleled visibility in both open
oceans and high-traffic zones. The Company will also provide
historical AIS data as well as its AIS position validation
capabilities, which leans on its expertise in radio frequency
geolocation to determine the true location of a ship even when its
signal is manipulated.

within the Canadian government, including the Canadian Space
Agency, the Department of National Defense, Transport Canada, and
the Canadian Coast Guard. Spire offers the highest volume of AIS
messages tracked by satellite.
