01 · Define
Draw a polygon, rectangle or point on the map — or import GeoJSON, KML/KMZ or XLSX. Buffers, tags, priority, request type and reverse-geocoding are attached automatically.
SatView · Satellite operations platform
From area of interest
to autonomous intelligence
SatView plans and orders acquisitions across 29 operators, processes the delivered imagery with OTB, ESA SNAP and native pipelines, and keeps watching on its own. AI analysis of the results — detection, change, segmentation — lands with v3. Deployed on your infrastructure, not ours.

The chain
Six stages, one continuous loop
Most platforms stop at the order. SatView carries the imagery through processing and AI analysis, then closes the loop — a detected change re-triggers acquisition without anyone asking.
02 · Plan
SGP4 propagation on up-to-date TLEs computes every compatible pass over 7 days, scored on elevation, cloud cover, sun angle and off-nadir.
03 · Order
Order wizard with live cost estimate, or the visual Mission Planner. Weather and embargoed-zone restrictions are checked before confirmation, then the order goes to archive search or direct operator tasking.
04 · Process
Build a processing DAG visually. 30+ native Python operations plus Orfeo Toolbox and ESA SNAP: calibration, atmospheric correction, pansharpening, indices, segmentation, COG conversion.
05 · Analyze SatView v3
Object detection, Change Vector Analysis and semantic segmentation — each producing a raster plus a companion GeoJSON in WGS84, so results are geometry you can query and export, not a picture.
06 · Automate
Monitoring rules re-acquire on a cadence and retry on excess cloud or poor quality, evaluated by a 15-minute cron. Rules that fire on AI-detected change arrive with v3.
Processing & AI
The imagery does not stop at delivery
Ordering an image is the easy half. SatView takes the delivered scene through a full processing chain today — and, with v3, reads it.
Shipping today
- Visual pipeline builder — assemble a DAG of operations in the browser and run it as an asynchronous job.
- 30+ native operations — spectral indices, statistics, reprojection, subset, orthorectification, cloud masking, atmospheric correction, pansharpening, mosaic, band math.
- Orfeo Toolbox and ESA SNAP — industry toolchains actually invoked, not reimplemented.
- SAR and interferometry — calibration, speckle filtering, InSAR coherence and displacement.
- Segmentation and classification — watershed, graph-based, SLIC superpixel, K-means, threshold index.
- Cloud-native — process straight from a COG URL, export back as COG or JP2.
Coming in SatView v3
- Object detection — ONNX models run with a sliding window over the scene: vehicles, ships, aircraft, buildings, storage tanks. Output as heatmap raster plus GeoJSON.
- Change detection — Change Vector Analysis with Otsu thresholding, polygonized into vector change masks.
- Semantic segmentation — ONNX models or spectral K-means, producing a labelled raster with its legend.
- Detection layer — results rendered on the map as GeoJSON, and auto-indexed so past detections stay searchable.
- Bring your own models — upload and manage your own ONNX weights. Nothing is locked to a vendor's model zoo.
Why we say so. The inference chain is in development and ships with v3. We would rather tell you that here than let you find out in a demo.
Autonomous monitoring
Set the rule. Walk away.
A monitoring rule turns a one-off acquisition into a standing watch. The loop runs whether anyone is looking at the screen or not.
Cadence
Re-acquire the AOI on a fixed rhythm — daily, weekly, or whatever the mission needs.
Retask on cloud
Delivered scene above your cloud threshold? The rule orders a replacement automatically.
Retask on quality
Below the quality floor you set, the acquisition is retried rather than silently accepted.
AI change v3
Every new image is compared to a stored baseline. A change score above threshold raises the alert.
Notifications go where your team already is: in-app, email, or webhook — hardened against SSRF and spam. Cadence and retry rules run today; with v3 a detected change closes the loop on its own — acquisition, processing, analysis and alert, with no human in it.

Security & sovereignty
Built for people who cannot send imagery to someone else's cloud
Sensitivity classification and imagery release restrictions are not a settings page bolted on afterwards — they sit across the whole chain, from order validation to sharing and PDF export.
Embargoed zones
Imagery over embargoed countries is restricted by user and by recipient — share links included. Each zone carries the regime it derives from, so any refusal traces back to a text.
Sensitivity classification
Seven levels from UNCLASSIFIED through TS//SCI, drawn from NATO, US and EU practice, with caveats and an explicit releasability list. Persistent banner, and a classification header on every exported PDF.
Audit trail
Every sensitive action is logged. Per-user and per-team rate limits, AES-256 encrypted provider credentials, secrets in environment files — never in code.
Self-hosted by design. SatView runs on your servers or in your Docker environment.
Imagery, AOIs, detections and audit logs stay inside your perimeter — there is no SatDream cloud to trust.

Coverage
29 operators in the catalog, 10 wired for direct ordering
Track and plan against all 501 satellites. Highlighted operators are connected end-to-end — unified STAC search over their archives and direct ordering from SatView. UP42 adds a tenth connector as a multi-sensor aggregator on top of the operators below.
