ORBITAL demonstrates how a fictional platform could turn orbital imagery into decision-ready workflows for agriculture, energy, insurance and public-sector teams.

01 / Constellation

Twenty-eight satellites. One lens.

The concept models three sun-synchronous planes, 50 cm resolution and five spectral bands to demonstrate how a constellation brief could read.

02 / Downlink

Ten ground stations. Four-minute latency.

An illustrative downlink sequence shows scenes reaching a workspace during a pass, with a sample 3m 42s capture-to-console metric.

03 / Analysis

Pixels become answers.

The simulated scan demonstrates how models could classify land cover, count vessels, meter construction and flag change.

Who runs on ORBITAL

One constellation. Every industry that touches the ground.

Agriculture

Field-level crop health, moisture stress and yield forecasts across whole regions — refreshed daily, not quarterly.

Energy

Monitor pipelines, solar farms and grid corridors for encroachment, damage and construction progress automatically.

Insurance

Pre- and post-event imagery for every insured roof — triage catastrophe claims in hours instead of weeks.

Defense & intel

Persistent, revisit-guaranteed monitoring of areas of interest with automated change detection and alerting.

How it works

From photons to answers in three steps.

  1. Task or subscribe

    Draw an AOI and choose a cadence — or skip tasking entirely: every landmass is already captured daily.

  2. We fly, you stream

    Scenes downlink on every pass, are orthorectified in minutes, and appear in the console, the API and your cloud bucket.

  3. Models watch for you

    Change detection, object counting and classification run continuously. You get answers and alerts — not terabytes.
