How ICEYE Revolutionized The SAR Satellite Industry | The Technology

Small and affordable SAR satellites now make it possible to track changes taking place in any location on Earth, and even to predict future events.
A key requirement that’s been missing from earth observation is being able to track changes very quickly and very often. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) allows you to see in any weather, day or night. But if you want to be able to track changes to any location on the globe in minutes, hours or a few days, you need a constellation of satellites that are small and affordable enough to enable persistent monitoring that can be quickly activated, flexibly maneuvered and that can deliver the right information at the right time. That’s exactly what ICEYE does.

Nice job, Darren!

Great explanation, Darren!

It's nice, and you are rockin' it at ICEYE, but it's not the satellite that sees the change ...it's the processing of the data in an interferometric chain that reveals these differential Time Series. Differential SAR is only as good as your orbit to orbit precision, InSAR requires locking that orbit into a "tube" with less than 500m variance orbit to orbit to orbit to orbit to orbit ......so what any one satellite can "see" relative to its orbital mission...thus the need for many satellites to create the revisit on a global scale.
