Maxar Granted Exclusive Rights to Satellogic
Data for Missions Supporting the U.S. Government and Select
International Government Partners
Maxar Intelligence and Satellogic, Inc. (NASDAQ: SATL) have
announced a tasking, data licensing and distribution agreement (the
“Agreement”) that enhances Maxar’s ability to deliver monitoring
and change detection insights in near real-time for the U.S.
government and the government’s partners around the world.
Specifically, the Agreement grants Maxar exclusive rights to
task Satellogic’s high-revisit constellation and use its
cost-effective satellite imagery to support national security
missions for the U.S. Government and select U.S. partners
internationally.
Pairing Satellogic’s high frequency revisit rates with Maxar’s
very-high resolution satellite imaging capabilities and AI-powered
technologies creates a differentiated offering in the market. Maxar
can task Satellogic imagery and apply machine learning models to
simultaneously monitor activity and detect change over multiple
geographies. When it is time to better understand that activity or
change, Maxar can collect a 30 cm-class image to get a more
detailed and precise view. This Agreement unlocks new opportunities
to deliver Earth observation data by achieving a balance between
cost, resolution, and revisit frequency.
“This agreement with Maxar is a watershed moment in Earth
observation, providing crucial capacity to warfighters and allies,"
said Matt Tirman, President of Satellogic. "Combining our
constellation with Maxar's expertise enables comprehensive
monitoring and analytics to meet the demand for actionable
intelligence. Access to Maxar's distribution platform expands our
reach and delivers our data to more customers.”
This partnership will further enhance Maxar’s virtual
constellation capability, which brings together complementary
sensors to create a seamless collection, delivery and analysis
workflow for users.
“In today’s dynamic environment, warfighters and intelligence
analysts need to be able to detect and understand change over many
areas of interest simultaneously,” said Peter Wilczynski, Chief
Product Officer at Maxar Intelligence. “To achieve this more
ambitious mission, customers need access to more than one
constellation—tipping and cueing between sensors to balance between
cost, revisit and resolution is essential. Adding Satellogic into
our virtual constellation allows us to deliver timely
mission-critical insights to our U.S. and international government
customers at even greater scale, giving them a strategic
advantage.”
