HawkEye 360

What does HawkEye 360 offer?

HawkEye 360 describes a space-based system for detecting, characterizing and geolocating radio-frequency emissions, supported by a ground architecture and analytical processing. Its published portfolio includes spectrum monitoring and mission-oriented intelligence products. RF collection is a different input from an optical image; define the signal question and required output before comparing the service with another sensing provider.

Questions for a shortlist

Ask which signal types, collection modes and data products the proposed service covers. Specify whether you need raw collection, geolocation or an analytical output, and who performs further interpretation. Establish delivery interfaces, timing, coverage assumptions, uncertainty information and permitted sharing with your intended customer.
