KazEOSat
KGS Space Technology, the operator of the KazEOSat constellation, offers a cutting-edge solution for high-resolution optical imagery of the Earth's surface. The KazEOSat constellation is specifically designed to provide frequent revisits to any point on the planet, ensuring timely and up-to-date data acquisition. Equipped with advanced high-resolution optical cameras, the satellites have the remarkable capability to capture images with a resolution of up to 2.5 meters, enabling detailed and accurate analysis.
Dataset details
Specification of KazEOSat-2 Constellation:
- Satellite size and weight: Each KazEOSat-2 satellite measures approximately 1.5 meters x 1.5 meters x 2.2 meters and has an estimated weight of around 400 kg.
- Orbit: The KazEOSat-2 satellites are deployed in a sun-synchronous orbit at an altitude of approximately 600 km.
- 8 spectral bands, including Blue, Green, Red, Red-edge, Near-infrared 1, Near-infrared 2, Shortwave Infrared 1, and Shortwave Infrared 2.
