Infrastructure & Asset Monitoring
Capella's SAR satellites deliver persistent, high-resolution intelligence through darkness, clouds, and adverse weather — enabling continuous oversight of critical infrastructure and industrial assets anywhere on Earth.
Full-Scope 24/7 Visibility Across Your Operations
Track Changes Across Remote Operations
Track excavation progress, material stockpiles, and terrain changes at remote sites with high-resolution SAR that delivers consistent insights. Monitor activity over time, detect subtle shifts, and support operational planning.
Maintain Visibility Across Distributed Infrastructure
Monitor pipelines, bridges, transport corridors, and facilities spread across regions with revisit and wide-area coverage. Detect unauthorized activity, track construction progress, and identify change before it becomes a problem.
Monitor Energy Assets in Any Condition
Monitor tank fill levels, vessel activity, and operations at power plants and ports day or night, in any weather. Integrate with analytics partners to track reserve levels and support supply chain protection.

FAQ
Ask us anything
What Imaging Modes Does Capella Support?
Capella satellites support Spotlight (including Spotlight Ultra), Sliding Spotlight, Stripmap, and Parallel Stripmap imaging modes.
How Does Capella's Tasking System Work?
Capella's scheduler runs every 20 minutes and processes new acquisition tasking requests for a rolling one-week-out scheduling window. Users submit their desired imaging parameters through Console or API, receive cost review and approval notifications, then tasks enter the queue. Once the window open date is within the one-week scheduling horizon, the system automatically plans, schedules, collects, and delivers imagery based on collection tier priority (Urgent, Priority, Standard, Flexible, or Routine for repeats).
What Resolution And Image Quality Can Acadia Achieve?
Acadia delivers resolution ranging from 0.25 m to 1.2 m azimuth resolution depending on imaging mode. Spotlight Ultra achieves 0.25 m azimuth with 0.25/0.3 m slant range resolution. The system uses single-polarization (HH or VV) X-band SAR with look angles from 15° to 50° and grazing angles from 73.5° to 33°. Multi-look processing (1-5 looks depending on mode) reduces speckle while maintaining spatial resolution.
What Data Formats And Products Are Available?
Capella provides Single Look Complex (SLC), Geocoded Ellipsoid Corrected (GEO), Geocoded Terrain Corrected (GEC), SICD, SIDD, CPHD, and Colorized Sub-aperture Imaging (CSI) products. All products can support machine learning and AI analytics development with STAC-compliant metadata for seamless integration into existing workflows and GIS platforms.
How Does Extended Imaging Capacity Work?
Acadia's 10 minutes of continuous imaging per orbit is enabled by larger batteries, enhanced solar arrays, and improved thermal management. The 600 MHz radar bandwidth combined with extended dwell times delivers more collection capacity per pass.
Can Acadia Support Persistent Monitoring?
Yes. Repeat tasking allows automated monitoring of any point target with user-defined repeat cycles (daily, weekly, custom intervals). The system can automatically plan, schedule, and deliver collections with optional geometrically similar parameters. Multi-orbit constellation (sun-synchronous and mid-inclination) enables multiple collection opportunities per day across global latitudes.
