Soar is pleased to welcome another global satellite imagery provider, Twenty First Century Aerospace Technology (21AT), to the platform. This gives users even more options to acquire high resolution satellite imagery at a click of a button.

21AT has been in the remote sensing space since 2001. They’re well known for their TripleSat constellation, providing high resolution imagery across various industries globally. Now Soar users will have the opportunity to access their vast catalogue of high resolution imagery. 

21AT is offering imagery in two different resolutions, 50cm from the BJ3 satellite and 80cm from the TripleSat constellation.
The BJ3 satellite provides 50cm pansharpened and 2m multispectral imagery at 22km swath width. It has a high collection capacity which is able to collect about 2 million km2 area of the globe every day. The satellite also features multiple direction scanning when conducting imagery collection, enabling the collection of stereo imagery. The accuracy of the stereo imagery is high with less than a 7.5m variance without any ground control points after image processing.
The TripleSat Constellation provides 80cm pansharpened and 3.2m multispectral imagery at 24km swath width. With three satellites in a constellation, it's able to target anywhere on the Earth once per day. This is especially useful if frequent monitoring of an area is required. This constellation also offers high resolution archive imagery dating back to 2015.

“We are especially willing to partner with Soar since it's one of the most professional and advanced companies in the remote sensing and surveying industry at present,” said 21AT Head of Marketing, Peter Ren Ting.

He hopes that through this partnership, Soar can bring imagery from the TripleSat constellations and BJ3 satellites to a global audience.
Soar are just as thrilled about the partnership. 

“At Soar, we are excited to be working with 21AT to offer their satellite imagery to expand our continually growing global user base,”  said Neil Prentice, Soar’s Chief Operating Officer. 

“Both the TripleSat and BJ3 constellations will allow our users more choice in acquiring both new collection and archive imagery across the globe with the ease and convenience of the Soar platform.”

As Soar continues to grow and expand, having more imagery providers on board will bring us closer to our goal of building the largest digital atlas of the world.
We’re currently onboarding our new provider, and Soar users will be able to order archive and new imagery from 21AT directly from the platform very soon. Users will be notified via email when the imagery is ready to order. If you’re not on our mailing list, subscribe today by registering for a free Soar account.
