Spain's Xoople Raises $130 Million Series B to Build the Geospatial Data Layer for AI
Barcelona-based Xoople has closed a $130 million Series B to expand its Earth mapping platform, which turns satellite and aerial imagery into structured geospatial datasets used by AI systems across logistics, infrastructure planning, and environmental monitoring.

Xoople, a Barcelona-based geospatial intelligence company, has raised $130 million in Series B funding to scale its platform for turning raw satellite and aerial imagery into structured datasets that AI systems can use. The round represents one of the larger recent investments in what has become a quiet but significant infrastructure category: the geospatial data layer that makes location-aware AI applications possible.
What Xoople Builds
Raw satellite imagery is abundant — dozens of commercial and government satellite operators are continuously capturing the Earth's surface. The bottleneck is not image acquisition but extraction: turning pixels into structured, queryable data about what is in those images, where things are, how they are changing over time. Xoople's platform automates that extraction process at scale, producing datasets that describe physical-world conditions — vegetation coverage, building footprints, infrastructure status, traffic density, land use change — in formats that AI systems can ingest directly.
The company's customers include logistics operators routing fleets across road networks that change faster than traditional map providers update, infrastructure planners assessing project sites, insurers monitoring climate risk, and environmental organizations tracking land use change. The common thread is a need for structured, current, machine-readable information about the physical world.
The Geospatial AI Infrastructure Opportunity
The $130 million raise reflects investor conviction that geospatial data will be foundational infrastructure for a wide range of AI applications — particularly as AI systems move from text-and-image processing toward physical-world reasoning and action. Autonomous vehicles, precision agriculture, supply chain optimization, and disaster response all require the kind of structured Earth observation data that Xoople produces. The market is fragmented today, with different operators using different data sources of varying quality and recency. A platform that provides consistent, high-quality, continuously updated geospatial data at scale has a structural advantage.
Xoople will use the funding to expand satellite data partnerships, grow its annotation and extraction infrastructure, and accelerate commercial deployment in the logistics and infrastructure verticals. The company previously raised a $30 million Series A in 2024.
