WorldView Legion is the next generation of high-resolution Earth observation
satellites. WorldView Legion's first block will be a fleet of six high-
performance satellites that deliver continuity for existing customer missions
and dramatically expand revisit over high-interest areas to better inform
critical, time-sensitive decisions.

WorldView Legion will have three product levels. Basic products (Level 1B) provide
sensor-oriented, radiometically-calibrated mono and stereo imagery for users to do
their own image geo or orthorectification. Standard products (Level 2A/2B) are map-
projected with uniform pixel spacing across products for image manipulation and
analysis by image processing soware. Finally, Ortho Products (Level 3) are ideal for
image viewing and locational reference when high positional accuracy is required.
