Earthdaily: EarthDaily Analytics (EarthDaily) has been selected by the United States (US) National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) to support the use of commercial multispectral Earth observation imagery under the Strategic Commercial Enhancements (SCE) Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO).

According to BERNAMA News Agency, the global Earth observation company announced that the contract, valued at US$1.2 million, signifies the increasing role of commercial providers in fulfilling US government mission requirements. Chief Revenue Officer Eric von Eckartsberg highlighted that this selection reflects a broader shift toward integrating commercially available, high-quality Earth observation data into operational decision-making.

"Our focus is on delivering consistent, trusted measurement that enables faster, more confident decisions in complex environments," von Eckartsberg stated. EarthDaily will provide scientifically calibrated multispectral imagery and remote sensing capabilities through modelling, simulation, and data evaluation using the EarthDaily Constellation currently in orbit, with additional satellites scheduled for launch through 2026.

The company is set to demonstrate end-to-end tasking, collection, and product dissemination capabilities, responding to product ordering and delivery requests from the NRO and its partners. This contract is a step toward establishing a scalable framework for future US government demand, positioning EarthDaily to support a wider range of mission applications as commercial Earth observation becomes increasingly integrated into national security operations.

The selection aligns with the EarthDaily Constellation, a next-generation optical Earth observation system designed to deliver daily global coverage across 22 spectral bands and support artificial intelligence-ready analytics for government and commercial users.
