Umbra Releases Over $1 Million of Free SAR Data via its Open Data Program

Umbra satellites generate the highest-resolution commercial SAR data ever offered commercially. Within the Open Data Program, users can work with spotlight mode data products ranging from Umbra's industry-leading unrivaled 25cm to 1m resolution. Starting in August 2023, all of Umbra's open data collects will include a comprehensive set of complex data and file types, including GEC, SICD, SIDD, and CPHD. The Open Data Program is updated several times a week, and offers the opportunity for users to analyze the time-series data to detect changes at each location.

"Historically, sub-50cm resolution data was restricted to the defense market," said Gabe Dominocielo, Umbra's co-founder and president. "I'm excited to enable free access to the highest-resolution commercial SAR data."

SAR satellites are particularly effective when it comes to change detection data, as they can capture images not only during the day, but also at night and during any weather conditions, including cloud cover, and smoke. These frequently updated images enable researchers, students, and others to harness Umbra's data for a variety of purposes, including training machine learning models to work with the data.
