Spire Global's constellation is composed of LEMUR nanosatellites. Each satellite is multi-payload, equipped with different sensors to collect global radio frequency data in near-real-time.
This mission is considered a Third Party Mission Under Assessment. The evaluation will tackle cal/val activities and assess the products specifications. This analysis will be performed in the framework of the Earthnet Data Assessment Pilot (EDAP). The evaluation will also allow any interested user to investigate the suitability of the data for scientific and R&D activities.
