Space Imaging's IKONOS satellite is the world's first commercial 1-meter remote sensing satellite.
The potential applications of this high resolution data are appropriate for a wide variety of customer
segments. Data may be purchased by the square km for the customer's particular area of interest
(with minimum order requirements).
The 1-meter resolution of the panchromatic data enables users to distinguish ground features as small
as one meter. The accuracy and interpretability of the imagery makes it ideal for mapping and
analysis.
IKONOS will simultaneously collect 4-meter multispectral data, excellent for a variety of analysis
applications. Space Imaging Europe also performs a technique called "Pan-Sharpening" which
combines the spatial content of the 1-meter panchromatic data with the spectral content of the 4-meter
multispectral data.
We are pleased to be a Space Imaging partner: you will find details of images from the IKONOS
satellite elsewhere on this site and there is also a sample image you can download.
