Modes:
Spotlight, Strip-map, ScanSAR, Interferometry
A SAR satellite on the HyperSat Seagull platform for Earth Observation missions where standard optical imaging cannot provide full continuity: maritime monitoring, change detection, crisis management support, and continuous observation in severe weather and night-time conditions. Complements the Nano and EagleEye optical satellites in a mixed constellation and provides support in strategic decision making. Gen 1.0 in development now.Soveregin SAR Earth Observation at up to 3–5 m GSD, independent of daylight and cloud cover.
