As we all track the progress of Hurricane Milton, we are reminded of the importance of timely, high-resolution satellite imagery in supporting disaster preparedness, response, and recovery.
During a time when access to the right data, delivered at the right time, to the right people is especially critical, we're honoured to announce a multi-year data distribution agreement with Maxar Technologies, marking a significant milestone in making vital geospatial data more accessible to those who need it most.
This agreement, the first of its kind, enables the delivery of 50cm, 30cm, and 15cm HD resolution imagery from the Maxar constellation to our global customer base via the SkyWatch platform.
With the addition of Maxar's recently launched WorldView Legion satellites, we will be able to significantly increase our capacity to deliver 30cm and 15cm HD data. This capacity expansion is essential not only for businesses and commercial applications, but also for NGOs and humanitarian efforts assisting in immediate disaster response or long-term recovery from crises like the one unfolding now.
Our BUILD customers will also have the ability to integrate Maxar's data into their applications via the SkyWatch platform, providing enhanced capabilities for monitoring, assessing, and reacting to real-time events.
While nature's unpredictability can be a stark reminder of our vulnerabilities, this partnership strengthens our ability to provide actionable insights when they're most needed.
