10 March 2025 – Munich, Germany: European Space Imaging (EUSI) remains 100% committed to providing satellite imagery intelligence to commercial and government partners in Ukraine, as well as EU intelligence agencies and other security and humanitarian users.
Recent reports about disruptions in satellite imagery access over Ukraine refer only to data purchased by the U.S. government and shared through a specific intelligence programme. This does not affect EUSI’s operations. Maxar Technologies has also issued an official statement clarifying this distinction.
EUSI’s direct operation of the WorldView and WorldView Legion satellites via its Munich-based ground segment ensures seamless access to imagery over Ukraine. In fact, users may even experience increased capacity in the region.
“EUSI continues to work closely with EU security agencies, reinforcing Europe’s strategic autonomy in satellite intelligence,” said Adrian Zevenbergen, CEO of European Space Imaging (EUSI). “Our mission remains unchanged: to provide fast, reliable, and actionable imagery intelligence for the safety, security, and sustainability of Europe.”

Earth Observation Turns Ecological Targets into Measurable Outcomes: How Satellite Imagery Supports Compliance with Europe’s Nature Restoration Regulation
The EU’s Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR) entered into force in 2024 and set legally binding targets to restore degraded ecosystems across Europe. With National Restoration Plans due in September 2026, Member States face an urgent question: how do you map, plan and monitor restoration across millions of hectares in a consistent, verifiable way? Earth Observation (EO) – and Very High Resolution (VHR) multispectral satellite imagery in particular – is increasingly the answer.

European Space Imaging (EUSI) announced a major upgrade of its satellite ground segment and cloud infrastructure, further accelerating its industry-leading satellite tasking and intelligence delivery capabilities through the secure ATOM™ web and API platform. The platform, in combination with EUSI’s Rapid Satellite Intelligence (RSINT) program, enables satellite tasking up to 30 minutes before image acquisition and delivery of imagery within 15 minutes of collection.
Maritime Domain Awareness in European Arctic Regions With VHR Satellite Intelligence
With the Arctic warming nearly four times faster than the average, the ice in the High North is melting and the sea is becoming increasingly navigable. In 2025 alone, 1812 vessels entered the Arctic Polar Code area, which is a 40% increase since 2013 when data collection began. While this rise in traffic presents potential commercial opportunities, more vessels also mean more risks to people and resources.
Seeing More in a Single Day: The Value of Intraday Satellite Collections
Imagine a convoy moves between 08:00 and 11:00. Or morning clouds clear by 14:00, revealing new activity. Or a structure appears at 09:30 that wasn’t visible at 07:00. If you’re working with once-daily satellite passes, you miss all of this. With intraday collections, you see it happen.
