OSINT At Home #23 - Top Commercial Satellite Imagery Providers
This tutorial is part 23 of the OSINT At Home series. The tutorial covers the top providers of commercial satellite imagery and also the third party providers where you can buy other commercial imagery from.
Note: I have not received sponsorship from any of these brands for the making of this video, or for their feature. These are brands that I have used in my work and for investigations and analysis in the past that has relied on satellite imagery as a tool.
The tutorial focusses on guiding you through the different main providers of commercial satellite imagery, with a special look at the three biggest and main providers of global high resolution satellite imagery, being Maxar, Planet and Airbus.
There are, however, many commercial satellite imagery providers, including other ‘imagery’ providers such as synthetic aperture imagery (SAR), so in this tutorial I also go through third party imagery providers, such as Apollo Mapping and SkyFi, where you can find these main providers, as well as others depending on your needs.
By taking a closer look at some of the leading commercial satellite providers, like Maxar Technologies, Airbus’s OneAtlas, and Planet Labs, and discussing the services they provide, as well as what they provide for free, you will have an idea of what’s available to purchase, outside of the big wide world of free satellite imagery.
The links for the providers shown in this tutorial are:
Maxar: www.maxar.com/
Planet Labs: www.planet.com/
Airbus: intelligence.airbus.com/imagery/
SkyFi: www.skyfi.com/
Apollo Mapping: apollomapping.com/
The OSINT At Home series is useful for those looking to find digital breadcrumbs and pick up some methods of open source intelligence (OSINT), digital investigations and good old plain research. No matter who you are, or where you are in the world, you can follow these tutorials from home with publicly available information to answer questions such as who, what, where and when.

    They look like they are photoshopped in the image, I cant explain it. I suppose a thief or stalker could use the data to stalk someone via social media, that part is scary. Or, worse, your kids... keep your kids off social media. Still cannot find Biden even with all this at your disposal.

    Fun fact, you can strip the data or spoof it in* your images, I presume for the videos too. Privacy is important. Though one day it might save your life not to. After being doxed, I started to utilize this.

      @about29cats Місяць тому

      Well, there isn't much destruction, and every single news station won't shut up about it. I bet you don't know any information about this war, and it is way larger, way more people dying than Israel vs. Hamas terrorists. Bet you don't know about the Tigray War, which is way more horrific than what you are talking about. The most horrific thing that happened in Israel vs. Gaza was actually in Israel's territory, the Hamas soldiers forcing women to put babies into ovens. That is not even half as bad as the things happening multiple times a day every day in Tigray or Sudan.

    Some viewers might wonder where the imagery comes from before Earth observation satellites were placed in orbit. In many cases high resolution photography was done from aircraft during the earlier days and this has been geo-rectified and then uploaded into the satellite imagery databases.
