Satellites Spotting Aircraft

Umbra Space operates a Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellite fleet offering high-resolution imagery regardless of weather conditions. SAR can penetrate clouds and smoke, capture images day or night at resolutions as fine as 16cm, and is free via their open data program. SpaceX launched Umbra’s satellites, with a total of ten currently in orbit. They focus on manufacturing plants, airports, and more. A unique aspect is their collaboration with MSFA to improve object detection in SAR imagery. The tech setup used for analysis includes an impressive workstation and specialized software. The content details the process of downloading, analyzing, and interpreting the SAR imagery and data obtained.
