The Swifty fleet offers the highest resolution and the most frequent captures. In September, that resolution more than doubles to 7 cm, offering resolution that can see a level of detail down to a soccer ball. Currently, Near Space Labs offers 22-30 cm per pixel resolution. Near Space Labs hasn’t just made it possible一they’ve made it cost effective and easy, too. Just a few short years ago, affordable and accessible imagery was unthinkable.

The Near Space Labs mission is to get this imagery into more hands than ever, so that an entirely new generation of researchers and planners can easily gain access to a new view of the world. Their flagship technology, the Swifty, is a balloon-powered, zero-emission vehicle that captures high-resolution imagery from the stratosphere. Near Space Labs is focused on capturing the best imagery on the planet, as frequently as possible. “Participation in the ArcGIS Marketplace continues to affirm their dedication to providing GIS-ready imagery data to our mutual clients.” “We’re thrilled to have Near Space Labs as a valued new imagery Esri startup partner” said Todd Smith, Executive Partner Manager, Emerging Business, Esri. “We expect it will unveil an unprecedented level of clarity and insight for organizations trying to map, understand and influence the world they operate in.” “This integration is a first step in our strategic partnership with Esri to pair Near Space Labs’ best-in-class imaging with the powerful ArcGIS analytics environment,” states Near Space Labs co-founder and CTO Ignasi Lluch. Now users can explore and download our imagery catalog with ease for advanced analysis and data visualization. This partnership will give users access to Near Space Labs’ high-frequency imagery through the Scene Explorer ArcGIS Pro Add-in available on the ArcGIS Marketplace. Near Space Labs and Esri want you to see the world as never before, and now you can with their recently launched partnership through the Esri Startup Program.
