From space to ground via the cloud in 12 minutes. That’s how fast we’ve been consistently delivering our 30 cm-class satellite imagery in early-stage testing of our next-gen WorldView Access offering. Not a one-time test. Repeatable performance that beats the industry baseline for cloud-based delivery by 78 minutes. We’ve even done it faster. The below image of Baja California, Mexico, was delivered in 11 minutes. For missions where minutes matter—tactical operations, site monitoring, crisis response—that gap is the difference between mission success and irrelevance. Here's what makes it work: our constellation integrated directly with distributed, cloud-enabled ground stations running advanced processing at the edge. This pushes production closer to collection, cutting latency without sacrificing intelligence quality or security. All without on-site physical infrastructure. A new industry benchmark. Coming to the WorldView Rapid Access Program soon. Learn more about our WorldView Access programs here: vantor.com/product/worldview…

In the modern battlespace, the problem isn’t a lack of data, it’s too much of it. Thousands of feeds, sensors and signals flood command centers every second. The challenge is turning that chaos into clarity fast enough to act on it. That’s what May Tassler’s team at Vantor is doing. They’re building systems that fuse AI/ML, big data, kinematic modeling, and predictive analytics to identify patterns of life, detect change and anomalies, and predict suspicious behaviors before they happen. They’re refining algorithms that cut through noise, connecting satellite imagery, crowd-sourced data, and multi-domain sensors into one living operational picture. Their work delivers intelligence that moves with the mission — fast, precise, and built to outpace the threat. This is how Vantor is reshaping mission intelligence for the modern era.

Vantor has activated its Open Data Program for Hurricane Melissa, which has had a devastating impact across the Caribbean. 🔗 Access via our Discover portal: discover.vantor.com (click the “Open Data” button on the left-hand navigation menu) We have been collecting high-resolution imagery of Jamaica, Cuba, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic, and we are making pre- and post-event imagery available for free to help accelerate response, relief, and recovery efforts across the region. We are continuing to collect post-event imagery in the coming days, and new imagery will be uploaded to the Discover portal as it is processed. All imagery is made available under a Creative Commons 4.0 license. This imagery can be used by frontline organizations and geospatial community members to map changes on the ground and identify the most severely impacted areas, helping ensure resources are allocated quickly and effectively. Images collected a few hours ago showing flooding and damage caused by Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica. The first two images are of Black River in southwest Jamaica. The third image is of White House, a village known for its role in the local fishing industry. And the fourth is of Montego Bay.

Vantor has been awarded a contract by the @USSpaceForce for continuous tracking of high-interest space objects. We will use our space-to-space imaging capabilities to deliver both imagery and critical information on the position and trajectory of space objects as they pass through “blind spots” in space that are not visible to ground sensor networks. Through this contract, we’re delivering real-time intelligence that is critical to helping Space Force achieve persistent Space Domain Awareness and secure a national security advantage in a domain that is increasingly congested and contested. Vantor satellites can capture images of other spacecraft at an industry-leading resolution of less than 10 cm from hundreds of kilometers away, making it possible to quickly characterize those space objects and determine their health and status. This includes collecting information about the state and directional paths of those objects. This award is one of several SDA-related contracts that we’ve recently won. ➡️ Learn more here: vantor.com/blog/vantor-award… 📸 While not specific to Vantor’s work with the U.S. Space Force, this visual showcases Vantor’s space-to-space imaging capabilities.

Full bloom on the most powerful radar satellite ever built—seen here with centimeter-level clarity. Vantor collected this image of the NISAR synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite after it deployed its giant circular radar antenna reflector in August. Developed jointly by @NASA and @isro, this reflector measures 12 meters in diameter and is the largest of its kind ever deployed in space. NISAR released first images late last month. For high-value assets in space, decision makers don't have days to wait for answers to critical questions. They need fast answers. Our WorldView Space non-Earth imaging capability is built for exactly this kind of mission. Here you can see the actual structural state—whether the mesh is properly tensioned, if the deployment geometry matches specifications, and how the spacecraft is oriented relative to its imaging targets. With this image, we also collected spacecraft orientation, velocity data, and deployment confirmation that telemetry alone can't verify. This is the kind of trusted intelligence that delivers total clarity to help you understand what's happening in Earth's orbit.

Take a behind-the-scenes look at Raptor, the technology that landed us on this year's @FastCompany Next Big Things in Tech list for its ability to power autonomous operations in GPS-denied environments. See the tech in action, hearing from Paul Millhouse, Ryan Garay, and Micah Schicker as they break down how Raptor enables drones to navigate, position and extract precise ground coordinates using only their onboard camera and our global 3D terrain data. No GPS. No additional hardware required. Works at low altitudes and at night. It’s autonomy built for the edge—transforming how unmanned systems operate in the most challenging environments on Earth. 🔗vantor.com/product/mission-s…

Vantor’s Raptor product was just named one of Fast Company’s Next Big Things in Tech, recognized for how it unlocks more resilient autonomy even when GPS is down.
