The SuperView-1 Advantage

Multi-Sensor Constellation
With four identical satellites in orbit, SuperView-1 is committed to maintaining data continuity with its multi-sensor constellation.

Extensive Archive Coverage
SuperView-1 is making up for lost time by crisscrossing the planet to create a robust 50-cm archive with near global coverage.

Overview & HistorySuperView-1 SpecificationsPricing

SpaceWill launched the first two SuperView-1 satellites on December 26, 2016; and then on January 9, 2018 they launched two identical satellites into orbit. SpaceWill plans to launch a total of 16 satellites by the end of 2022. These include satellites equipped with synthetic aperture radar (SAR), video and even hyperspectral cameras. All four SuperView-1 satellites feature true 50-centimeter (cm) resolution panchromatic and 2-meter (m) 4-band multispectral imagery (i.e. blue, green, red and near-infrared [NIR]) – making it one of the few satellite constellations achieving these resolutions without resampling. With a plethora of satellites in orbit, SuperView-1 is collecting an extensive archive of 50-cm high-resolution imagery around the world.
