constellr

constellr delivers thermal observations from space to help customers understand activity, operating patterns and the condition of physical systems. Its satellites provide a complementary source of intelligence when optical or radar information alone does not give a clear picture. Designed to fit into existing intelligence workflows, constellr’s services support defence and security, maritime awareness, infrastructure monitoring and environmental analysis. Day-and-night thermal sensing helps users assess events and independently check other observations.
