Very high-resolution satellites provide a new approach to forestry and agricultural customers by offering them an alternative to direct on-site inspection or expensive aerial photography.

Multispectral imagery provides vegetation health measurements valuable for crop yield estimation. In forestry, panchromatic and multispectral data from EUSI can be beneficial in both detecting early signs of tree stress as well as assessing and managing tree stand inventories. The images show detailed features such as trees, buildings and trucks, and can even help pinpoint precise problem growing areas in a field. Multispectral (color) digital images can be displayed to include the near-infrared band to allow quantitative analysis of crop vigor. From mitigating drought to battling pest infestations to predicting harvest yields, our coverage and revisit capabilities give agronomists, agri-business leaders and other concerned parties the current information they need to make sound decisions.
