Skybox Imaging is developing a high performance constellation of imaging micro-satellites to deliver high resolution imagery of any spot on Earth multiple times per day. Skybox sells timely satellite imagery and derived information products to commercial customers and governments worldwide.
The Skybox team's mission is to expand significantly the use of satellite imagery for commercial customers and governments alike.
Nov 2012: as we approach the launch date of our first satellite, SkySat-1, our team is focused on completing the construction of the satellite and ground infrastructure, as well as building strong relationships with our partners and customers. SkySat-1 is a commercial Earth observation satellite, licensed to collect high resolution panchromatic and multispectral images of the Earth. The satellite will operate in a polar inclined, circular orbit at approximately 450 km above the earth.
