    GEOSAT-1

    GEOSAT-1 is part of a group of satellites collectively known as the Disaster Monitoring Constellation (DMC).

    GEOSAT-1

    GEOSAT-2

    GEOSAT-2 is the second satellite of the GEOSAT Earth Observation system, following GEOSAT-1.

    GEOSAT-2

    The GEOSAT series consists of GEOSAT-1 and GEOSAT-2 mission. They are Earth imaging satellites. GEOSAT-2, a high resolution satellite, became the first European fully-private satellite capable of providing sub-metric multi-spectral imagery.

    Algarve, Portugal: As seen by GEOSAT-1

    Algarve, Portugal: As seen by GEOSAT-1

    This false-colour multispectral satellite image captures the rugged southwestern tip of the Algarve region in Portugal, centred around the dramatic coastline of Cabo de São Vicente (Cape St. Vincent) and Sagres. Captured by the GEOSAT-1 satellite on 26 May 2011, the image highlights the distinct, jagged promontory extending into the ocean at the bottom-left that marks Cabo de São Vicente—historically referred to as "the edge of the known world."

    Galicia, Spain: As seeen by GEOSAT-2

    Galicia, Spain: As seeen by GEOSAT-2

    This is a false-colour Near-Infrared (NIR) satellite image captured by the high-resolution GEOSAT-2 satellite. Detailing a coastal section of the Galicia region in northwestern Spain, it was acquired on 10 September 2022. Within this image, the deep red areas indicate dense, healthy vegetation.

    Cluj-Napoca, Romania: As seen by GEOSAT-2

    Cluj-Napoca, Romania: As seen by GEOSAT-2

    This GEOSAT-2 satellite image , acquired on 29 March 2020, shows the city of Cluj-Napoca in Romania. Cluj-Napoca is one of the largest cities in the country and is bisected by the Someșul Mic River. GEOSAT-2's 75 cm resolution imagery provides a detailed view of the city's layout and allows us to identify landmarks such as the white overal of the Cluj Arena on the south bank of the river and most of Cluj International Airport on the right edge of the scene.

    Antwerp, Belgium: As seen by GEOSAT-2

    Antwerp, Belgium: As seen by GEOSAT-2

    This very high resolution image from the GEOSAT-2 satellite shows part of Antwerp in Belgium on 21 March 2020. The scene focuses on Antwerp's port, which is located in the north part of the city. The port is one of the largest in the world and serves as an important centre of trade in both Belgium and mainland Europe.

    Busan, South Korea: As seen by GEOSAT-1

    Busan, South Korea: As seen by GEOSAT-1

    This GEOSAT-1 satellite image, acquired on 5 March 2015, shows Busan in South Korea.

    About GEOSAT

    The Earth imaging satellites GEOSAT-1 (formerly Deimos-1) and GEOSAT-2 (formerly Deimos-2) are fully owned and operated by GEOSAT company.

    GEOSAT-1 was launched in July 2009 and remains operational. The mission is fully dedicated to Earth observation and captures images all around the world. The GEOSAT-1 system provides capabilities well above and beyond the design goals.

    GEOSAT-2 was launched in June 2014 and remains operational. The mission is the second satellite of the GEOSAT Earth observation system, following GEOSAT-1, and provides mid-resolution, very-wide-swath imagery.

    The GEOSAT series is part of ESA's Third Party Missions Programme.

    GEOSAT Objectives

    The objective of the privately funded GEOSAT series is to provide very-high-resolution data, carry out commercially-focused operational imaging missions, supporting rapid-response, and large-area mapping for a range of applications.
