CSDA Vendor - Satellogic

NASA's Commercial Satellite Data Acquisition (CSDA) program has acquired commercial datasets from Satellogic.

Hero image for CSDA

Satellogic operates a vertically integrated constellation of high-resolution multispectral Earth observation satellites designed for frequent global monitoring and geospatial data delivery. Their multispectral constellation captures imagery in the visible (Blue, Green, Red) and Near-Infrared (NIR) spectral bands, enabling applications such as environmental monitoring, agriculture, mining, and disaster response. The products are provided as high-resolution GeoTIFFs accompanied by detailed metadata describing acquisition parameters, calibration information, and geolocation accuracy.

Authorized Data Use and Users

All members of the U.S. Government, and researchers funded by the U.S. Government, have access to the Satellogic Level 1D Orthorectified multispectral archive and tasked data products from Satellogic.

Data Product NameDescription
Archive dataThis product provides images covering 25,000 square kilometers (km2) of the Satellogic archive.
Standard Tasking with cloud cover protection of less than 5% This data product offers a total of 1,050 observations of 50 km2.
Priority Tasking with cloud cover protection of less than 5% This data product offers a total of 100 observations of 50 km2.   
Rush Tasking This data product offers a total of 10 observations of 50 km2.
Area Tasking with cloud cover protection of less than 5% This data product offers a total of 75 observations of 250 km2.   

For every data product, imagery can be delivered in any of the following 4 processing levels:

Processing LevelDescription
L1 Basic4-band (RGB+NIR) top-of-the-atmosphere reflectance product characterised by its low processing time. It is geolocated and projected to the ground but not orthorectified and it is presented at native resolution. This implies that different captures may have different pixel sizes depending on the altitude and the off-nadir angle of the satellite at capture time.
L1 Ortho-Ready4-band (RGB+NIR) top-of-the-atmosphere reflectance product designed for users who wish to perform their own orthorectification using a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of their choice. The rasters are provided with Rational Polynomial Coefficients (RPCs). By combining the imagery, the RPCs, and a DEM, users can generate their own geometrically corrected, orthorectified images.
L1 Ortho4-band (RGB+NIR) top-of-the-atmosphere reflectance product, orthorectified and resampled at fixed GSD (70cm for Mark-V and 99cm for Mark-IV).
L1 Ortho SR4-band (RGB+NIR) top-of-the-atmosphere reflectance orthorectified product. Resolution is increased (Super Resolution) using Machine Learning (Deep Learning) techniques, so final GSD is 50cm for Mark-V and 70cm for Mark-IV.
