"Ursa is truly a mission partner for us."
"Ursa has been on the forefront of multi-INT products their platform and insights are incredible," said Gabe Dominocielo, Umbra's co-founder and president. The satellites enjoy an uncommonly large field of regard, which enables them to collect an unprecedented volume of images over densely clustered targets in high-demand areas. Umbra satellites are equipped with a powerful SAR payload, capable of seeing both day and night and through all weather conditions.
Ursa also credits Umbra's Compensated Phase History Data (CPHD) for providing an even more raw form of the data than is typically provided by other vendors, giving Ursa the ability to develop novel derived products through ongoing research and development efforts. The data provided by Umbra adds additional capacity to Ursa's Virtual Constellation, the world's largest database of satellite imagery from the most-trusted SAR, optical, and Radio Frequency data vendors around the globe. Ursa cited data quality, API maturity and documentation, and open licensing as primary reasons why they chose to partner with Umbra. "Umbra's high-resolution data allows for more accurate analysis, and by offering data with a wide range of processing levels, they enable development and evaluation of advanced analytics and techniques that wouldn't otherwise be possible," said Eric Cote, Director of Geospatial Partnerships, Ursa Space Systems. Flood data is also being used by Ursa customers to speed up the insurance claim process for those impacted by severe weather events. Ursa is also using Umbra's data to provide their customers with flood analytics - which are critically important to provide situational awareness for emergency responders on the ground. Umbra data has played an integral role in several of Ursa's core global monitoring capabilities, including global oil storage assessment and vessel detection. The two companies first teamed up to serve customers in late 2022 when Umbra initially began offering high-resolution SAR imagery for commercial use, and Ursa signed on as its first commercial customer.
