Agreement enables ability to set up automated tip-and-cue tasking and the fusing of signals and other intelligence sources through BlackSky Spectra® to support tactical ISR operations

BlackSky Technology Inc. (NYSE: BKSY) won a multi-year contract with geospatial intelligence fusion company EMDYN (Emerging Dynamics) to deliver space-based imagery services to international customers. The agreement gives international ministries of defense the ability to set up API-enabled automated tip-and-cue tasking and the fusing of signals and other intelligence sources to support real-time tactical operations.

“BlackSky and EMDYN’s combined services will bring space and terrestrial data together for on-demand insights at scale, while a mission is ongoing,” said Brian E. O’Toole, BlackSky CEO. “These unique AI-driven services will reduce end-to-end latency across the entire tasking-to-dissemination process.”

“EMDYN Platform was fully developed in-house to meet the growing intelligence challenges in an increasingly unstable world,” said Tim Van Renterghem, EMDYN founder and CEO. “Integrating BlackSky satellite imagery into EMDYN Platform adds a powerful real-time dimension that empowers analysts to derive accurate, actionable intelligence much faster.”

BlackSky achieves industry-leading speed through constellation design and a dedication to end-to-end AI-driven system automation. With rapid, hourly revisit rates, the BlackSky Spectra® tasking and analytics platform delivers time-diverse imagery and analytics up to 15 times per day, dawn-to-dusk, providing decision-quality data directly to those who need it most—from senior leaders to those in the field.
