Pioneer new EO applications: tipping and cueing for maritime surveillance service

Prime company: DEIMOS IMAGING S.L.U. (ES)

One of the advantages of constellations of EO satellites is the capability to observe areas or features of interest more often than a conventional satellite would allow. However this usually requires rapid tasking of follow-on satellites based on information collected from a lead satellite. This “Tipping and cueing” is critical to ensuring an effective monitoring …
