GeoEye-1 Level 2A Panchromatic Satellite Imagery

The GeoEye-1 Level 2A Panchromatic Imagery collection contains satellite imagery acquired from Vantor, Inc. (formerly known as Maxar Technologies) by the Commercial Satellite Data Acquisition (CSDA) Program. Imagery is collected by the GeoEye-1 satellite using the GeoEye-1 Imaging System across the global land surface from September 2008 to the present. This data product includes panchromatic imagery with a spatial resolution of 0.46m at nadir (0.41m before summer 2013) and a temporal resolution of approximately 3 days. The data are provided in National Imagery Transmission Format (NITF) and GeoTIFF formats. These level 2A data have been processed and undergone radiometric correction, sensor correction, projected to a plane using a map projection and datum, and has a coarse DEM applied. The data potentially serve a wide variety of applications that require high resolution imagery. Data access is restricted based on a National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) license, and investigators must be approved by the CSDA Program.
