The mapping data will serve the environmental science, infrastructure, agriculture and forestry industries
The satellites have been used to image regions such as the Dubai Palm Islands and the Kirshna River Delta in India.
The satellites will be used to examine features such as soil types, mountain ranges, bare lands, reservoirs, agricultural farms, delta regions and urban settlements
