DigitalGlobe adding Radarsat imagery to geospatial big data platform

DigitalGlobe announced to expand its cloud-based geospatial big data platform, GBDX, with Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data from Radarsat-2. By combining SAR data, which provides observations in all light and weather conditions, with DigitalGlobe’s optical imagery, GBDX will allow customers to perform actions that were previously impossible.

For example, a GBDX user seeking to monitor illegal logging in a specific area could use GBDX to find Radarsat-2 images for the area and apply a change-detection tool to the images to reveal areas of suspected illegal logging. Then, GBDX could provide the user with high-resolution optical imagery of the highlighted areas for closer inspection
