Yes, internet access is required to use the SWIFT Platforms. The platforms are cloud-based and rely on live data connections to display satellite imagery, GIS layers, and analytical outputs.
That said, the level of connectivity required is similar to what you would need to access a standard webpage or online dashboard. There is no need for specialised infrastructure or high-bandwidth connections for typical platform use.
Because processing and data storage occur in the cloud, users can access the platform from different locations without local installations. This makes it easier for teams to work remotely while still accessing current data and insights.
