Changing the Economics of Space

Platform • SSTL-300 S1

Example SSTL-300 S1 high-resolution imagery

Agile, Sub-meter Imaging System

The SSTL-300 S1 is the latest in the family of

highly capable SSTL-300 platforms, providing

sub-meter imagery with all the existing mission

performance of the platform, and retaining

its heritage.

Ideal for a wide range of commercial, civil,

and security applications, the agile SSTL-

300 S1 Earth imaging system offers 0.75 m

GSD imagery with high-speed downlink and

45-degree fast slew off-pointing. Thanks to

the high agility of the system, applications

previously only possible at lower resolution can

now be achieved with incredible image detail.

Applications

Suitable for a wide variety of commercial, civil,

and security applications, including:

• Surveillance

• Security

• Multi-angle measurements

• National and urban mapping

• Agricultural monitoring

• Precision farming

• Orthographic mapping
