The IKONOS satellite is the world's first commercial satellite to collect
panchromatic (black and white) images with .80 m resolution and
multispectral (color) imagery with 3.2 m resolution. Imagery from the
panchromatic and multispectral sensors can be merged to create .80 m color
imagery (pan-sharpened). IKONOS imagery is being used for national security,
military mapping, air and marine transportation, and by regional and local
governments. From a 423-mile-high orbit, IKONOS has a revisit time of once
every three days and downlinks directly to more than a dozen ground stations
around the globe.
