Potential customers

• Weather missions.
  • Getting real time information about the weather will increase the performance of the weather models.
• Emergency responder missions
  • For emergency responding (for example natural disaster responding) latency of information is paramount.
• Military mission
  • To get near realtime data of the battlefield is very important.
• Hyperspectral imaging
  • These missions create a large amount of data. Since the datalink is continous the amount of data that can be generated and downlinked can increase.
