The NRO claims that the new contract is comparable to the company\u2019s previous contracts with the NGA and includes access to daily unclassified imagery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith its large constellation of satellites, Planet can image country\u2013and even continent-sized areas\u2013every day,\u201d said Pete Muend, director, NRO\u2019s Commercial Systems Program Office, in a statement. \u201cThis capability to provide daily revisit over large areas of the Earth gives analysts unparalleled opportunities to discover and monitor activity for a wide range of applications.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since 2017, the NGA has been transitioning its responsibility for acquiring commercial satellite imagery for the intelligence community to the NRO, which is also charged with operating the nation\u2019s spy satellites. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/c2-comms\/satellites\/2019\/06\/04\/how-the-nro-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-commercial-imagery\/\" target=\"_blank\">The NRO issued four study contracts to commercial companies<\/a>, including Planet, earlier this year to assess whether they can meet government requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWith the transition, NGA can continue to shift its focus to emerging commercial GEOINT products and services that uniquely support our user community,\u201d said David Gauthier, director of NGA\u2019s Source Commercial and Business Operations Group. \u201cNGA\u2019s 2016 Planet subscription played a role in our analytic transformation, where we are now focused less on pixels and more on information content and services.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a result, \u201cthe NRO is committed to ensuring NGA and its customers continue to have access to Planet imagery to perform the vital analysis needed to create value-added geospatial products for our partners and policy makers,\u201d said Muend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of the ongoing transition
