Imagery Acquisition Planning

We provide expertise in the application of spaceflight engineering imagery (acquisition, coordination, and analysis) for data collection and performance insight during launch, ascent, on-orbit, entry, landing, recovery, and ground testing.

With a vast pool of experience and capability with integration, imagery assets, imagery data management, and photogrammetric analysis that can be applied to a wide variety of scenarios and assessment challenges, we are able to meet both government and private industry imagery needs.

We simplify the process of securing one-of-a-kind imagery assets and skill sets. Guidance is given to the customer in assembling the appropriate complement of imagery acquisition tools, minimizing costs associated with market research. Access to a wide variety of imaging options can be provided — ground-based, airborne, seaborne and vehicle-based — available both through government and commercial vendors.
