Planet For Defense And Intelligence

Detect and Validate Threats Across Any Area of Interest

Gain awareness of what’s known, uncertain, and hasn’t yet emerged with high-frequency, high-resolution satellite data.

Minimize Intelligence Gaps

Traditional methods of indications and warnings (I&W) are increasingly ineffective against evolving threats. Adversary deception and denial tactics are outpacing these methods, leading to strategic surprises, unforeseen threats, and severely limited response options.

Existing geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) assets, primarily focused on known targets, struggle to identify emerging threats and anomalous activities. Continuous and comprehensive global monitoring solutions can effectively address these vulnerabilities.

With near-daily Planet satellite data you can leverage more than 300 billion sq km of imagery to establish a baseline understanding of normal patterns of life and detect subtle changes that may signal potential threats, enabling proactive responses to emerging situations.
