Traditional optical and radar satellites have been around for a long time, but the ability to image with the frequency, clarity and accuracy needed to make operational decisions has never been possible.
We constantly search for new talent to push the technology limits and keep making impossible possible. See our open positions and join us on this journey!
Arenaloop is obtaining interferometric data with a single satellite weighing less than 100 kilograms that follows a precise ground track, thanks to electric thrusters from Enpulsion of Austria. Every 18 days, the satellite captures imagery and data of the same locations.
Arenaloop delivers unmatched persistent monitoring capabilities for any location on earth. Our data can be collected day or night, and even through cloud cover.
The company expects to provide not just agricultural data, but information about the environment, climate change, transportation and energy infrastructure, natural disasters and maritime activities.
The images are created by synthetic aperture radar, which bounces radio signals off the ground and detects their reflections, using computer models to construct images of the shape of things below.
Its principal advantage over passive imagery is that it can peer through clouds, a key obstacle to imaging on a planet with a lot of water on it.
By 2050, Arenaloop will be Owning the world’s largest synthetic-aperture radar (SAR) satellite constellation, we enable objective, data-driven decisions for customers in sectors such as insurance, natural catastrophe response and recovery, security, maritime monitoring and finance.
Radar satellites spying on farms from space is a taste of the future economy
The images below, created by a radar satellite built and operated by a private company, are a taste of a future in which anyone can purchase the ability to monitor changes on Earth from space.
