provider of comprehensive space solutions and secure, precise,

with European Space Imaging and Space Imaging Middle East,
strategic partners serving customers in Europe, Northern

European Space Imaging and Space Imaging Middle East provide
Maxar high-resolution satellite imagery to a wide spectrum of

border security, disaster response and agriculture. Continuing an
11-year partnership, European Space Imaging has reserved dedicated
capacity on Maxar's existing WorldView satellite imaging

provides for upgrades to European Space Imaging's ground station
that would allow it to access Maxar's next-generation WorldView
Legion satellites.
"We're delighted to continue one of our longest and most
important partnerships in this region," said Tony Frazier, Maxar EVP and General Manager,
Public Sector Maxar Earth Intelligence. "This agreement ensures
European and Middle Eastern customers will have access to the
highest quality satellite imagery and innovative products, such as
our 15 cm HD imagery. We are pleased that customers in Europe, Northern
Africa and the Middle East
will soon be able to take advantage of WorldView Legion's
game-changing capabilities."
"This enduring alliance between Space Imaging Middle East,
European Space Imaging and Maxar Technologies has been fundamental
to the success of all parties involved for many years, and we are
very pleased to see it extended further," said Maitha Juma, Chairperson of Space Imaging Middle
East and European Space Imaging.
"Accessing the highest quality satellite data at unapparelled
efficiency in the collection and delivery process will provide new
business opportunities that will benefit both our team and the
European Earth Observation community as a whole," said Adrian Zevenbergen, Managing Director of
