Planet Labs PBC (NYSE: PL), a leading provider of daily data and
insights about Earth, today announced that it has signed a
seven-figure contract expansion with a US-allied International
Government Agency for SkySat high resolution satellite data.
“Global customer demand for high resolution satellite data
continues to grow, fueled by heightened security needs and
increased climate disaster risk,” said Will Marshall, Planet’s
Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder. “Our SkySat fleet provides
organizations with a powerful combination of high frequency, low
latency, high resolution data, enabling greater understanding of
critical events around the world.”
Planet’s SkySat fleet offers multiple revisits per day of
anyplace on the globe with up to 50 centimeter resolution imagery.
Over time SkySats will be replenished with Planet’s next-generation
high-resolution fleet, Pelican, which is designed to further
increase revisit rates and image resolution, while also reducing
latency and speeding customer time to insights. The first Pelican
tech demo, launched in November 2023, continues to perform
well.
“The ability to enable considerably faster alerting of various
types of events around the world has the potential to unlock
entirely new use cases for customers,” Will Marshall added.
Additionally, last month Planet announced that it is
collaborating with NVIDIA on its onboard processing capabilities
for its high-resolution Pelican-2 satellite. Through this
collaboration, Planet will leverage the NVIDIA Jetson edge AI
platform for its next-generation high-resolution mission and fly
the technology on its Pelican-2 satellite, set to launch later this
year. Leveraging recent advances in AI, Planet expects this
collaboration to support shorter time to value for customers across
government and commercial markets.
