RapidEye is a leading provider of quality high-resolution satellite imagery and derived geo-information products. With a constellation of five Earth Observation satellites, RapidEye images over 4 million square kilometers of earth every day, and will surpass 3 billion square kilometers in its archive by spring of 2012. With an unprecedented combination of wide area repetitive coverage and five meter pixel size multi-spectral imagery, RapidEye is a natural choice for many industries and government agencies. Since 2004, RapidEye has been headquartered in Brandenburg, Germany and has additional offices in Alberta, Canada, Luxemburg and Arlington, Virginia.
RapidEye's level 1B product is the RapidEye Basic Product. Level 1B imagery from the constellation of the five RapidEye satellies is radiometric and sensor corrected, providing imagery as seen from the spacecraft without correction for any geometric distortions inherent in the imaging process, and is not mapped to a cartographic projection. The imagery data is accompanied by all spacecraft telemetry necessary for the processing of the data into a geo-corrected form.
