California-based satellite ground station and software provider SeaSpace has acquired the remote sensing products and services division of US technology group Vexcel, a Microsoft subsidiary, for an undisclosed sum.
The transaction sees Vexcel’s products, which include a mobile SAR system capable of measuring small displacements, immediately transferred under the SeaSpace brand.
“SeaSpace is excited to offer these newly-acquired remote sensing products to our present and future customers, in order to deliver solutions for SAR and other high resolution data,” said Hyong Ossi, president of SeaSpace.
SeaSpace was founded in 1982, and provides remote sensing solutions to research, military and emergency response clients. According to the group, it receives and processes virtually all meteorological, oceanographic and environmental remote sensing satellites in the world.
Next year, SeaSpace will support the US government’s next generation of satellites, including the NPP, JPSS, and GOES-R birds.
