BlackSky Spectra

BlackSky's software for ordering satellite pictures of a site and getting them back with automated AI analysis, such as detection of vehicles, aircraft and ships.

Why it matters

Customers often want to know what is happening at a site, not just a picture of it. Spectra packages BlackSky's imagery and analysis in one place customers can use from anywhere.

How the technology works

Users task BlackSky's satellites in a few clicks. The satellites collect and return images in near real time, Spectra analyzes them automatically, for example flagging vehicles, aircraft and vessels, and delivers the results to the customer.
