GeoEye launched the IKONOS® satellite
in 1999 and it was the world’s
first one-meter commercial remote
sensing satellite. Since then, GeoEye
has set the standard for quickly
delivering large volumes of tonally
balanced, map accurate, mosaicked
images for a variety of industries
and applications. To date, IKONOS
has collected more than 275 million
square kilometers of imagery that
is readily available for delivery.
Moving over the ground at approximately seven
kilometers per second, IKONOS collects black-and-white
and multispectral data at a rate of over 2,000
square kilometers per minute. IKONOS satellite
imagery provides access to any location on the
Earth’s surface. Through the nearly fifteen,
98-minute journeys it makes around the globe
each day, IKONOS collects vital statistics about
the Earth’s ever-changing features—from
fluctuations in land and water resources to the
build-out of new urban areas. Commercial and
governmental organizations rely on GeoEye’s
high-resolution imagery to view, map, measure,
monitor and manage global activities.
