Maxar Open Data Program

Description

Pre and post event high-resolution satellite imagery in support of emergency planning, risk assessment, monitoring of staging areas and emergency response, damage assessment, and recovery. These images are generated using the Maxar ARD pipeline, tiled on an organized grid in analysis-ready cloud-optimized formats.

Update Frequency

New data is released in response to activations. Older data may be migrated to the ARD format as needed.
