This satellite company is offering wide-area radar images of the Earth’s surface:

arth-imaging startup Iceye so far has ten radar satellites in orbit, which provide its customers with views of the planet’s surface without having to worry about clouds or lack of sunlight obscuring the visuals. These images are valuable for applications ranging from disaster response to ship tracking, and the company’s shown off images with 1-meter resolution.

“With a wide area covering a scene at 10,000 square kilometers at fairly low resolution, you can quite easily see ships, for example, in the maritime domain,” says Steve Young, the company’s vice president of Business Development. In 2020, the company signed contracts with customers worth $50 million, ten times what it had signed in 2019, says Young. The average length of a contract is two to three years. In April, the company opened a spacecraft production facility in Irvine, California, and announced that it had signed a contract with In-Q-Tel to develop capabilities for U.S. government applications.
