LONDON, GREATER LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, August 28, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- What Is The Expected Cagr For The Space Archaeology Market Through 2025?
The market size for space archaeology has seen a swift expansion in the latest years. The estimated growth is projected to increase from $1.42 billion in 2024 to about $1.61 billion in 2025, at a rate of compound annual growth (CAGR) of 13.0%. The expansion during the historic period can be credited to the escalation in satellite imaging capabilities, the growing fascination in ancient cultures, an upward trend in the employment of remote sensing technologies, increasing partnerships between archaeologists and space agencies, along with a broadening collection of historical earth observation data.

The market for space archaeology is projected to experience substantial growth in the coming years, expanding to $2.59 billion by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7%. This predicted increase during the future period can be ascribed to developments such as AI-enabled imaging analysis, increasing emphasis on heritage conservation, the expansion of commercial satellite infrastructure, a surge in resource allocation for research in space, and the increasing convergence of GIS and archaeology. Key emerging trends during this period will encompass progress in hyperspectral imaging, sophisticated data fusion methodologies, breakthroughs in satellite size reduction, the amalgamation of machine learning into archaeological studies, and the incorporation of crowd-sourced data platforms.

What Are The Key Factors Driving Growth In The Space Archaeology Market?
The rise in funds allocated towards space technology is predicted to fuel the expansion of the space archaeology market in the future. Space technology investment pertains to the allocation of financial means to the development and execution of technologies employed in space exploration, scrutiny, and data gathering. A surge in governmental emphasis on satellite innovation aimed at boosting global mapping and monitoring capabilities primarily motivates investment in space technology. Such investments spur space archaeology by upgrading satellite imaging, remote sensing, and analytical instruments. For example, as per the European Space Agency, a France-based intergovernmental establishment, in 2024, space budgets soared to €121 billion ($138.75 billion), marking a 7% uptick from 2023. Roughly 47% of this budget was assigned to civil expenditure, which is a 5% escalation compared to the preceding year. Consequently, the escalating investments in space technology are propelling the progress of the space archaeology market.
