SOLUTION SPOTLIGHT

Global, Evidence-based Maritime Domain Awareness

Planet’s high-frequency data and living archive enables new approaches to maritime domain awareness, which historically have been restrained by limited coverage, inefficient manual processes, and complexity fusing data.

Daily coverage of strategic waterways and oceans, aided by a living archive of imagery, ensure both timely and retrospective analysis. When paired with advanced analytics, operational decision makers also have access to automated detection, attribution, and tracking of vessels. This not only speeds response, but also improves visibility into illicit activity and dark ships.

SynMax processes more Planet three-meter imagery of the Red Sea, Bab el-Mandeb, and Gulf of Aden than any other intelligence provider, empowering Theia’s AI to automatically identify and attribute vessels of interest amidst thousands of detections.
