Company Description

Problem

Organizations often lack timely access to high-resolution imagery for monitoring infrastructure, natural resources, and other critical assets. Existing satellite imagery solutions may not offer sufficient detail or frequent enough revisits to support effective decision-making. This limitation hinders the ability to proactively manage risks, optimize operations, and respond to rapidly changing conditions.

Solution

Albedo provides ultra-high-resolution visible and thermal imagery captured from low-earth orbit, enabling organizations to monitor assets and environments with unprecedented detail and frequency. Their satellites capture 10cm visible imagery and 2m thermal imagery, delivering actionable insights for a variety of applications. Albedo's cloud-centric delivery pipeline allows users to task satellites, search existing imagery, and receive analysis-ready data in under one hour. This rapid access to detailed information empowers users to make informed decisions, optimize resource allocation, and respond effectively to emerging challenges.

Features

10 cm native panchromatic Ground Sample Distance (GSD) and 40 cm native multispectral GSD for visible imagery

2.0 m GSD for thermal Long-Wave Infrared (LWIR) imagery

High revisit rates, with up to 1.5 revisits per day with a single satellite and 3-5 revisits per day with the full constellation (at latitudes <53°)

Rapid capture-to-delivery latency, averaging 30 minutes

Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF (COG) format for seamless integration with existing geospatial workflows

Standardized imagery products, including photogrammetry-ready, view-ready, and analysis-ready options

Spectral bands for visible imagery: 400-700 nm, 450-510 nm, 510-580 nm, 630-690 nm, 770-895 nm
