Canadian geospatial solutions company\u00a0EarthDaily made an initial public release of processed images from its first satellite, EDC-01. Developed by ABB in close proximity with EarthDaily\u2019s team, the multispectral imaging payload started delivering images in 2025. EarthDaily\u2019s proprietary advanced image fusion algorithms reveal high-precision Earth surface details from various locations. The payload has one of the highest pixel processing capacities in orbit with over 20 billion pixels digitized every second.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The system features an innovative compact telescope design that allows 16 multispectral imagers to be integrated on a single spacecraft bus, providing broad spectral coverage for high\u2011precision Earth observation. Each spacecraft will carry 12 visible and near infrared imagers (VNIR), two short wave infrared imagers (SWIR), and two thermal infrared imagers (LWIR).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Early data confirms that ABB\u2019s VNIR telescopes operate near the diffraction limit \u2013 a performance often viewed as a \u201choly grail\u201d in space imaging \u2013 thanks to an innovative thermally resilient design and micron\u2011level alignment tolerances preserved through launch. A stray\u2011light baffle engineered to reject unwanted sun and moon shine straylight ensures high contrast is maintained at all times. This architecture is scalable to larger apertures, enabling higher ground resolution for future missions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cABB is proud to be a part of the EarthDaily Constellation project set to transform the understanding of natural and human-caused change on Earth,\u201d said Frederic Grandmont from ABB\u2019s Measurement & Analytics division. \u201cSensor to sensor reproducibility is key when operating a 160-camera constellation working as one. On top of vetting the overall design this early payload data allows for inter comparison between the 12 VNIRs identical cameras.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“This moment validates years of shared vision and disciplined engineering between EarthDaily and ABB,\u201d said Don Osborne, CEO, EarthDaily….<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
