Imagery & Data Optical Satellites

High Resolution Satellite Imagery and Remote Sensing

Spatial Energy is solely focused on serving the needs of the worldwide energy industry and is the source for high resolution satellite imagery. Spatial Energy has established preferred relationships with the leading data providers and can thus select the best and most cost effective source(s) to meet your particular application.  Imagery is available on demand from our extensive data archives, by tasking satellites, and by speculative collection.

We offer high resolution satellite imagery from all the major commercial satellites.  Below is a brief summary of each; select for additional information and to view sample imagery.

QuickBird - 60 centimeter panchromatic and 2.44 meter multispectral imagery on a global basis.

WorldView-1 - features a high-capacity, panchromatic imaging system with half-meter resolution imagery.

WorldView-2 - the first high-resolution commercial satellite to offer 8-band capability with very high accuracy, agility, capacity and spectral diversity.

IKONOS - efficiently collects and delivers large volumes of tonally balanced, map accurate, mosaicked imagery for a wide variety of applications.

SPOT - SPOT imagery covers a wide, 60 km x 60 km, area and offers a full range of resolutions from 2.5 to 20 m for application on regional or local scales (1:000,000 to 1:10,000).  A single SPOT image covers 3,600 km2. 

GeoEye-1 - Launched on September 8, 2008, GeoEye-1 is the world’s highest resolution commercial satellite.

RapidEye - Constellation of 5 satellites with ability to capture high-resolution, large-area image data on a daily basis
Pleiades - Pleiades 1, launched December 16, 2011, and Pleiades 2, launched December 2, 2012, offer 50cm resolution,4 band color, orthorectified imagery with a 20-km swath width ground footprint at nadir. The Pléiades constellation provides very-high-resolution optical products in record time, offering daily revisits to any point on the globe.

Imagery Ready for Use in Leading Desktop Applications

Imagery from Spatial Energy can be viewed, analyzed, shared and combined with other geographic data using leading desktop and Web-browser applications, including Google Earth, Global Mapper, ESRI, and Virtual Earth.

LandSat 7 Enhanced Thematic Mapper Imagery

The 7, 4, 2 bands were selected to provide optimal viewing.  This band sequence of mid-infrared (7), near-infrared (4) and green (2) nominal spectral location provides more sensitivity to vegetative reflective and moisture content and greater determination of vegetation types, vigor and biomass content. Images of this type contain no actual Red or Blue data, making it very difficult to make them look the 'natural' way a camera or human eye would see them.
