Aechelon Technology, Inc. and ICEYE have entered a partnership to bring synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology with real-time sensor fusion and machine learning (ML) exploitation capabilities to the market. The collaboration will deliver enhanced 3D electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) situational awareness solutions, providing insights for national defense, emergency response, and allied operations.

This partnership integrates ICEYE’s advanced SAR satellite constellation with Aechelon Technology's expertise in real-time, GPU-driven, multi-spectral 3D processing. The joint solution aims to empower decision-makers with intuitive, high-resolution, 24/7 SAR imagery, unaffected by night, weather or smoke, ensuring quick and effective responses to global events.

ICEYE owns and operates the world’s largest synthetic aperture imaging radar constellation, offering near real-time earth observation capabilities. This partnership enhances ICEYE’s mission to deliver reliable, actionable information to global defense and response agencies.

Aechelon Technology’s advanced digital twin processing capabilities will fuse multiple ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) data sources, providing users with an in-context, realistic 3D representation of ICEYE’s SAR data powered by ICEYE’s live ISR exploitation. This high-fidelity visual representation will assist leaders in making informed, rapid decisions with a natural understanding of real-time events.

In support of the collaboration, Aechelon will deploy Image/Sensor Generators at mobile ground testing stations in Finland for field evaluations with allied nations and in the United States for ICEYE’s US-exclusive solutions.

“Together, our companies will provide the US and allied nations with precise, on-demand situational awareness, overcoming the limitations of weather, smoke, and night conditions,” said Javier Castellar, Co-Founder & Chief Strategy Officer of Aechelon Technology. “This solution not only enhances national security but also provides unique capabilities for first responders in times of natural or man-made crises, ensuring help reaches those in need when it matters most.”
