Planet operates own satellite constellation and provides a platform for geospatial data analysis for various industries (agriculture, maritime, energy, insurance, etc.). The company manufactures own small satellites. Its flagship satellite, Owl, provides near-daily imagery at 1-meter resolution across the entire Earth's surface to support critical global safety and environmental sustainability measures, while also ensuring uninterrupted communications. The Pelican satellite is designed to perform missions faster and with greater clarity thanks to ultra-high-resolution imagery. Its improved optical performance and extended spectral range are designed to deliver sharper and more detailed images.
