Essential questions

Resolution determines the level of detail in the image.

  • Low Resolution (e.g., 10m Sentinel-2): Good for analyzing large areas like crop fields, forests, or general land cover changes. You won't see details like individual cars or small buildings.
  • High Resolution (VHR - from 2m down to 0.3m): Necessary for identifying details such as specific buildings, vehicles, construction progress, or precise property boundaries. We recommend 0.5m or 0.3m for the highest precision.
    Important: Always use the image preview feature during selection to assess if the quality meets your expectations for your specific area.

The best way is to carefully check the image preview for clouds before placing your order. Our platform allows you to preview available scenes. Since we purchase the selected image from the satellite operator immediately upon your order, we cannot offer refunds or replacements if you choose and purchase a cloud-covered or unclear image. Please use the preview feature diligently.

No. Our service is designed for simplicity and accessibility. You do not need to create an account, sign any contracts, or commit to a subscription. You simply pay for the specific report you need, when you need it.

Absolutely not. The Satellite Imagery Report itself is delivered in the common PDF format. You only need a standard PDF reader (like Adobe Acrobat Reader, or even your web browser) to open and view it. Furthermore, you can conveniently order and view the reports even on your mobile phone. GIS software is only required if you intend to work with the source data.

No, our service provides access to archived satellite imagery, not live or real-time views. Satellite data requires processing before it's available. You can search our extensive archives for the most recent available images for your location and date range.

Delivery time depends on the resolution:

  • Low-Resolution (e.g., Sentinel-2): Typically delivered within 5 minutes.
  • High-Resolution (VHR): Delivery takes up to 48 hours. This timeframe is set by the satellite operators who process and deliver the data; we relay it to you via email as soon as we receive it.

Your order is delivered via email and consists of three parts:

  • The PDF Report: A user-friendly document presenting chronologically ordered Natural Color (RGB) satellite scenes
  • Remote sensing indices: NDVI, NDWI, NDMI,
  • The Source Data Package: A ZIP archive containing georeferenced files (most commonly GeoTIFFs) with individual spectral bands (Visible, Near-Infrared (NIR), Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) - depending on the sensor), ready for use in analysis or GIS software.

Yes, our service offers global coverage, allowing you to order imagery for virtually any location on Earth. However, availability depends on whether satellite images exist in the archives for your specific area of interest and chosen date range. Our platform searches these archives when you define your request.

Yes, absolutely. The source data package you receive includes georeferenced image files (most commonly in GeoTIFF format). These files are ready to be imported and used directly in standard GIS software like QGIS, ArcGIS, and others.

We provide imagery from a wide range of leading commercial and non-commercial satellite constellations, including but not limited to: Sentinel-2 (Copernicus), SPOT, Pléiades, Pléiades Neo (Airbus Intelligence), the WorldView series, and GeoEye-1 (Maxar Technologies).
