If you are searching for medium and high-resolution satellite imagery, the search is over as Image Hunter is the solution you’ve been looking for! Featuring satellite and aerial imagery as well as digital elevation models (DEMs) from a constantly expanding list of 53 sensors/datasets and 18 vendors, our database contains more than 101-million images/records meaning there is just no other website out there with this breadth of commercial data products. Our interface is slim-lined and modern, loading quickly on all platforms, browsers and operating systems. Further, our database is updated multiple times an hour with the most recent images collected by WorldView-3, Pléiades 1, PlanetScope, SuperView-1 and many more so you are sure to get the most current view of all the imagery and DEM databases we work with. Once you submit your request, an Apollo Mapping representative will be in touch within 4 Colorado business hours to get you the pricing information you need for your project.

Key October 2020 Improvement(s)

There’s been a recent flurry of adding new high-resolution satellites to Image Hunter and so in the past month, we were happy to introduce our 53^rd dataset to Image Hunter, 90-cm color OVS-3! While OVS-3 video data is not searchable, their mono archive can now be queried day and night along with the rest of our enormous database of more than 101 million records. In the past month, we were also busy improving some updates processes as well as the filters.

Here is a summary of the changes/improvements we made to Image Hunter during the past month:

• Added in high-resolution 90-cm color OVS-3.
• Streamlined both Maxar and Kompsat data updates.
• Improved search filters and the data selector.

Data Alert – An Automated Daily Imagery Search

Have you checked out Data Alert which lets you define an area of interest anywhere around the globe, the resolution your project requires and the number of months we should keep the alert active? Once an alert is set up, we check for new data over your area of interest every single day, and send you an email when we find coverage that meets your specifications. We have a short YouTube video with directions to set up a Data Alert, check out the last video; and we have written directions for Data Alert here.
