Satellites orbit the Earth at different heights. They are suitable for fire detection, biomass determination, and ozone layer study, to name a few applications.
The satellites that observe the Earth obtain diverse information on natural resources, oceans, urban growth, agriculture, livestock, fishing, forests, natural disasters, and national security, among others.
ImagenGeo is an authorized distributor of the most agile and sophisticated commercial optical and radar imaging satellite constellations that offer very high, high, medium, and low-resolution. Operating daily, they collect billions of km² of images per year.
Optical Imagery | Optical sensors are passive: they rely on sunlight to acquire information or images of the Earth. They also depend on weather conditions like clouds, mist, or smoke. |
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Imagery |
Radar is an active system that illuminates the earth's surface and measures the reflected signal. For this reason, images can be acquired during the day and at night, independent of sunlight: the radar signal penetrates clouds so images can be obtained regardless of weather conditions. |
