One of ICEYE's 2023-era SAR satellites, contributing to a constellation that by year-end 2023 had grown to roughly 27 spacecraft. ICEYE-X31's imagery serves customers ranging from insurance companies quantifying storm damage to defense agencies monitoring contested regions — all benefiting from SAR's fundamental advantage: it doesn't care whether it's cloudy, stormy, or the middle of the night.
