Maxar awarded contract by NGA, partners with Satellogic

Maxar Intelligence announced that it was awarded Delivery Order 01 under the Luno A program by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. This award is focused on delivering commercial analytic services, specifically automated AI/ML-generated object detections over many specified locations at once. Maxar is primarily identifying various classes of aircraft, ships, ground vehicles and railcars, helping NGA determine object counts at specified locations, classification of objects, identify trends and anomalies, and perform spatial and temporal geospatial intelligence analysis. The mission represents a strong example of operationalizing commercial technologies for persistent site monitoring at global scale. Maxar has partnered on this award with satellite Earth observation data provider, Satellogic (SATL).
