How AI Supercharges SAR Intelligence

Radar is powerful on its own. But when paired with artificial intelligence, it becomes mission-transforming.

Capella Space’s SAR constellation delivers unmatched visibility through darkness, dust, and weather—capturing high-resolution imagery across the globe, 24/7. By partnering with leading AI and machine learning innovators, we enable customers to go beyond pixels and uncover patterns, objects, and changes with precision and speed.

Whether you're tracking vessel movement, identifying aircraft, or monitoring vehicle activity in remote regions, AI-driven analysis of Capella SAR data accelerates decision-making across defense, intelligence, and commercial missions.

Making SAR Smarter: Our Analytics Partner Network

Capella's Analytics Partner network brings domain expertise and powerful AI and ML models directly to the SAR intelligence workflow. These tools transform raw radar data into classified detections, tracked movement, and strategic insights—helping users gain clarity faster and act with confidence.

AI-Powered Vessel & Aircraft Classification

SATIM | OREC
SATIM’s OREC engine delivers secure, on-premise object classification for ships and aircraft. It identifies object type, location, and dimensions—ideal for use cases that demand high precision, low latency, and full deployment sovereignty.

Scale AI | Donavan
Scale’s Donavan platform integrates directly with Capella SAR imagery to detect and classify multiple aircraft and vessel types. Designed for high-speed operations and seamless integration, it supports real-time maritime and aviation awareness.

Vehicle Activity & Change Detection

BoxMica | ML Models
BoxMica uses advanced machine learning to detect vehicle activity and short-interval movement using Capella's data. By highlighting patterns of life, infrastructure usage, or deviations from normal behavior, their models support persistent surveillance and early warning applications.

What's Next for SAR + AI

AI unlocks new value from every SAR collection:

  • Speed: AI models process and return insights faster than traditional imagery review
  • Scale: Automated detections across large AOIs reduce analyst burden and increase throughput
  • Precision: Models trained on SAR-specific features return highly reliable detections, even under adverse conditions

When paired with Capella’s reliable revisit and tasking capabilities, these AI enhancements enable rapid, targeted responses in time-sensitive missions. SAR gives you visibility. AI gives you analysis. Together, they deliver the insight and agility mission teams need to make decisions faster and with greater confidence. Capella Space is proud to partner with AI innovators like SATIM, Scale AI, and BoxMica to bring these solutions to life.
