The World Teleport Association (WTA) has named Skyline Communications’ DataMiner SatOps solution as the winner of the 2026 Teleport Technology of the Year award. The award was announced March 24 during the Teleport Awards for Excellence Luncheon at the SATELLITE 2026 conference in Washington, D.C.
DataMiner SatOps is designed to replace separate Monitoring and Control (M&C) and OSS/BSS tools with a vendor-agnostic platform that provides a unified view of satellite ground segment operations, covering technical assets, service orchestration, and logistics.
“DataMiner SatOps addresses this by replacing siloed tools with a vendor-agnostic digital twin that provides a single-pane-of-glass view of the entire operation,” says Hans Massart, Satellite Business Development Director at Skyline Communications. “This allows operators to manage technical assets, service orchestration, and logistics within one cohesive environment, reducing OPEX while enabling faster innovation. It’s a huge honor to see how positively the industry reacts to what we’re building. This award is a strong signal that the market is ready for this shift and that DataMiner SatOps is the right solution to lead it.”
“DataMiner SatOps is a unique solution that helps satellite and teleport operators reshape how quickly and effectively they deliver value in an era where speed and agility are becoming prime differentiators,” says Randall Barney, Executive Director at WTA. “That’s the kind of innovation we look for in a Technology of the Year.”
Massart also noted the platform’s positioning for AI-assisted operations: “With the explosion of data from converged networks, human-led monitoring and control is no longer scalable. DataMiner’s digital twin architecture allows AI to handle the heavy lifting. For satellite operators currently weighing the risks and rewards of AI, DataMiner provides a secure, future-proof foundation to move from human oversight to autonomous…
