The RapidEye System can collectimagery in FIVE spectral bands
Blue
Green
Red
Near Infrared
Red-Edge
Plants have spectral signatures which can be identified with those 5 bands
RapidEye is the first commercial system offering the Red-Edge band
The combination of these five spectral bands is ideally suited to monitorvegetation conditions and to detect growth anomalies

RapidEye has the ability to detect a
detrimental situation such as an oil
spill, soil erosion, illegal settlement,
vandalism and sabotage or
vegetation encroachment: essential
for safety and efficiency.

Key Points:
RapidEye is the only commercial satellite provider with broad area, repeat coverage in 5
spectral bands
The RapidEye system can image any spot in the world daily
The capacity for collection is up to 4 million square kilometers per day
Five meter image resolution can satisfy nearly half of the traditional intelligence requirements
Red edge and near IR bands are optimized for crop identification and monitoring
Broad-area change detection with results having real intelligence potential is now possible
Imagery can be shared with coalition forces worldwide
www.rapideye.de
Challenges . . . . .
Gaining market awareness and subsequent market share
Short term data sales, long term product and solution integration
Development of automated change detection over broad areas
Better sensors do not always mean a shortened decision cycle
Recurring, broad area mapping in a system already awash with data
