RapidEye announces the “opening” of their new Image Gallery on their website. The Image Gallery will feature high resolution satellite images taken from around the world by RapidEye’s constellation of five spacecraft. RapidEye plans to update the Image Gallery regularly as new, exciting images become available.
The new gallery currently includes six images in South America and the U.S. Among these are the area around the volcano Tunupa in Bolivia, oil fields in the vicinity of Odessa, Texas, as well as an agricultural area near São Paulo, Brazil.
All images can be viewed on RapidEye’s website at www.rapideye.de/home/news/gallery.
RapidEye successfully launched their constellation of satellites at the end of August, and is currently moving closer to completing final testing and calibration activities that will allow for commercial operations. Please note that these images are provided for viewing purposes only. Commissioning and calibration activities are still in progress.
