Real-Time Satellite Data Arrives: Satellogic looks to change data collection

摘要

Weighing an average of 100 lb. and spinning around the globe at 16,800 mph, 15 satellites will soon be firing vital data to farmers at unprecedented speed from roughly 450 miles above Earth. By the end of 2015, Satellogic, a new Earth-imaging company, will launch its first service constellation and offer initial services of high-resolution imaging and video in several spectral bands.
