MapMart Becomes Reseller of Satrec Initiative to offer KOMPSAT-2 and KOMPSAT-3 imagery to users
LONE TREE, Colo., March 12, 2013 – MapMart, a division of IntraSearch, today announced it has become a reseller of Satrec Initiative to offer the KOMPSAT-2 and KOMPSAT-3 imagery for end-users all over the world. The imagery produced by these sensors is a fine compliment to the high-resolution options currently available to MapMart customers.
KOMPSAT-3, launched successfully in May of 2012, provides 0.7-meter pansharpened color imagery accessible to end-users worldwide. A feature unique to KOMPSAT-3 is the collection time of 1:30pm local to the area of capture which offers increased visibility into the target area from a temporal perspective. The sub-meter imagery option is suitable for change detection, construction, agricultural, forestry, and oceanographic monitoring and urban management as well.
KOMPSAT-2 is a more established satellite offering 1-meter pan and pansharpened and 4-meter multispectral imagery. Launched in July 2006, KOMPSAT-2 has already built up an impressive archive of the world, much of it with 10% or less cloud cover. This satellite shares many of the same application capabilities as KOMPSAT-3. The KOMPSAT-2 imagery is available from MapMart to end-users all over the world as well.
“Including the KOMPSAT satellites as part of the MapMart imagery selections is a natural step in the composition of the complete MapMart offering. The unique collection time in the early afternoon creates a sub-meter option we have not been able to present to our users before now,” said Rebecca Murray, Partner & Product Manager for MapMart. “We look forward to being able to provide this imagery to users around the world.”
