We’re excited to announce we’ve added a new satellite, i.e., 50-centimeter (cm) 4-band BJ3A, to Image Hunter this month, expanding our high-resolution imagery offering to our clients and increasing the archive! BJ3A is the latest satellite from Singapore-based Twenty First Century Aerospace Technology launched on June 11, 2021. The satellite collects 50-cm resolution panchromatic data and 2-meter (m) resolution multispectral data, including red, green, blue and near-infrared bands. With a swath width of 23.5-kilometers (km), BJ3A can collect an impressive 750,000 sq km a day. You can learn more about BJ3A on our website and search the BJ3A archive on Image Hunter.
BJ3A joins Twenty First Century Aerospace Technology’s Triplesat constellation, a three-satellite constellation with 80-cm resolution and four multispectral bands. We’re also happy to announce a price drop for Triplesat archive imagery, now running $6 per square kilometer regardless of an image’s collection date.
