SUPERVIEW-1 SATELLITE

4 Satellites, 50 cm Resolution, 4 MS bands, Stereo Imaging, Agility

SV-1(short for SuperView-1) constellation is composed of four identical satellites. The foursome team provide global coverage of Earth surface with their very-high-resolution, panchromatic and multispectral cameras. SV-1 is the first commercial Chinese optical satellite constellation with 0.5 m resolution. The two pairs of SV-1 were successively launched on December 28, 2016 and January 9, 2018. The quadruplets work along the same orbital plane and revisit at any place on our planet on a daily base. SV-1 sensor consists of 5 spectral bands with each of the four satellite being totally identical to another. The raw resolution of satellite data is 0.5 m for panchromatic band and 2 m for blue, green, red and near-infrared (multispectral) bands. The image swath width is 13.1 km at nadir pass. 2 million square kilometer’s imagery can be collected on each day.
