Over 3 Million sq km of India Captured

"Having virtually the entire country of India available is another testimonial to how quickly our system can cover large contiguous areas," commented Wolfgang G. Biedermann, CEO of RapidEye. "With the announcement that we had collected our one billionth square kilometreof imagery last month, we can quite confidently say that that the majority of our customers can find their area of interest either through our library or the RapidEye Geodata Kiosk."

The RapidEye system also has successfully completed full coverage campaigns over the United States, Mexico, central Europe, China, Indochina and South Africa. Each of these countries and many more million square kilometres of Earth are available in the RapidEye Library which currently contains over one billion square kilometres of RapidEye data products.

RapidEye images the Earth in unparalleled quantities and will continue to make its satellite imagery available through its library, which can be searched either through a local distributor or directly through its Customer Service department.
