The SOP 200 (Scanway Optical Payload) is a microsatellite-sized dual-sensor imager designed for advanced Earth Observation applications. It is capable of capturing high-resolution imagery in both the visible (VIS) and near-infrared (NIR) spectral bands. Operating from an altitude of 350 km, the SOP 200 delivers a ground sampling distance (GSD) of 1.2 meters per pixel (1.75 @500), ensuring detailed spatial resolution for a wide range of observational and analytical needs.
Applications
The imager facilitates a wide range of Earth observation applications across various sectors, including:
- Urban Planning and Infrastructure Mapping
- Wildfire Mapping and Disaster Response
- Marine and Water Bodies Monitoring
- Agricultural Monitoring
- Forest Health Monitoring
- Facility Monitoring and Reconnaissance
Customization
Product customization is available, encompassing:
- number of spectral bands - by custom spectral filter application,
- GSD / SWATH - change of camera to a different one / to our custom solution, change of optical system.
