About
skycatch.com now redirects to a third-party announcement that Caterpillar acquired Skycatch on 2026-07-07 — very recent. Skycatch's products (Spatial Sight, Spatial DataHub, EdgeServer) are named in it, so the brand appears to survive inside Caterpillar, but there is no Caterpillar-hosted product page to point at yet. Re-check this one in a few months. Updated 2026-07-29: Caterpillar published its own press release confirming the acquisition (2026-07-07), which supersedes the earlier third-party announcement as the primary source. It does not name Skycatch products or state whether the brand survives standalone — the technology is described as being integrated into Caterpillar's RPM and MineStar mining solutions.
