Maxar WorldView Legion Satellites: The Successful Launch & Its Impact on EO Applications in Europe 

WorldView Legion satellites collect at 30 cm-class resolution, offer 8 spectral bands (some of which are different from WorldView-3), and increase Maxar’s imaging capacity to 6.6 million km2 a day. What are the specifications of the imagery? What technical innovations make the satellites smaller yet as powerful as their predecessors? And how does their unprecedented revisit rate transform critical sectors like defence and disaster response? Learn about the technical parameters and real-world applications of Maxar WorldView Legion in this article.

Synchronised Collections of SAR and VHR Optical Satellite Imagery Revolutionise Flood Management

As climate change accelerates, the frequency and severity of flooding events are becoming increasingly alarming. In response, innovative tools like DoubleShot, developed by European Space Imaging in partnership with Umbra, are transforming flood management strategies. By combining the power of Very High Resolution (VHR) Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) and Optical satellite imagery, DoubleShot delivers a comprehensive, weather-independent solution for near real-time flood mapping and monitoring.

Satellite sensors captured unique architecture, breathtaking nature and centuries of history. Explore the Colloseum, La Sagrada Familia, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and other landmarks.

30 cm Satellite Imagery as an Alternative to Aerial Data

Remote sensing projects can often begin with the question “Should I use aerial imagery or satellite imagery?”. This question may come up again and again over the course of long term projects where unforeseen circumstances change the ability to collect data, the reliability of the data or the scope of
