Found: The sanctioned Venezuelan oil tanker recently seized by U.S. authorities, seen here earlier this morning as it’s moving southwest in the Caribbean Sea just north of the island of Guadeloupe.

We identified the vessel's location using Maritime Sentry, our AI-powered persistent monitoring technology that integrates automated tipping and cueing of multi-sensor data with advanced analytics to detect, track, and identify vessels across millions of square kilometers of ocean. The system used both third-party synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery and our high-resolution satellite imagery to triangulate the vessel's location and collected detailed imagery in near real-time.

This example shows exactly what Vantor delivers: persistent monitoring across land and sea to deliver high-quality intelligence at mission speed.

The next generation of satellite tasking is here: automated validation, instant confirmation, 70-80% global success rates, and 30 cm-class resolution at unprecedented scale. The upgraded WorldView 2D tasking system eliminates uncertainty and lets analysts and mission planners rethink their workflows with confidence.

Powered by WorldView Legion's expanded capacity and a fully automated tasking engine, our constellation collects nearly 7 million sq km of imagery daily, including more than 3.5 million at 30 cm-class resolution—the highest commercially available.

We've also simplified how you order. FastView guarantees collection within 24 hours for time-critical missions. FlexView optimizes for weather conditions, guarantees cloud coverage below 15%, and can be scheduled up to 365 days in advance.

It's a modern tasking experience that removes friction and gives you reliable access to the imagery you need, when you need it.

Sentry x HMS Oardacious. We're once again partnering with the crew of the Oardacious, a 31-foot rowing vessel, as they prepare to depart La Gomera on Friday for the World's Toughest Row Atlantic crossing. The four-person crew will row approximately 3,000 miles to Antigua, raising funds for mental health and STEM initiatives.

As they make this voyage, we’ll be sharing updates on key milestones with Sentry, our automated persistent monitoring technology. Vessels this small produce limited AIS (Automatic Identification System) data with long gaps between broadcasts, so finding them across the Atlantic is a real challenge.

Sentry delivers automated multi-sensor tipping and cueing of both electro-optical and SAR imagery, combined with machine learning models that fingerprint suspect vessels within minutes of collection, giving analysts the ability to identify patterns across maritime domains where most activity goes unseen. It's how we tracked the HMS Oardacious during last year's crossing, maintaining custody at 950 miles off the African coast.

The Oardacious crew is taking on one of the toughest endurance challenges on water. We're ready to cheer them on from space.

China's Yulin Naval Base earlier this morning. Explorable in full 3D. We generated this high-resolution 3D terrain from a single satellite pass at 11:21 a.m. local time today, processing it into this finished image within 10 hours. All delivered in 50 cm resolution and at sub-4 m spatial accuracy.

The Yulin Naval Base, located at the northern edge of the South China Sea, is known to be one of China's most strategically important military bases.

In this image, you can see the Fujian aircraft carrier docked at port, with a patrol boat passing by. Construction of a dry dock and new quays and piers are also visible.

Command systems and autonomous platforms rely on our highly accurate 3D spatial foundation to serve as a trusted ground truth for the operational terrain. Our rapid 3D processing capability updates this foundation with only a single satellite pass, keeping that foundation current at mission tempo.

All powered by our Forge software. That’s total clarity from space to ground.

‘Tis the season. Sharing a little critical Christmas intelligence from above. These images, captured last night, show the annual Rockefeller Plaza Christmas Tree lighting ceremony in New York City.

Our high-resolution nighttime imagery provides highly detailed insights of activity on the ground even after dark. Seasonal spirit meets mission readiness.

Vantor has activated its Open Data Program in response to the severe flooding across Asia caused by a series of cyclones combined with heavy monsoon rains in Sri Lanka, Indonesia and Thailand.

🔗 Access via our Discover portal: https://xpress.maxar.com/?lat=0&lon=0&zoom=3.0 (click the “Open Data” button on the left-hand navigation menu)

Vantor has collected new high-resolution satellite imagery that shows the extent of the flooding. Right now, we have some imagery of Sri Lanka available, and we will be adding imagery of Thailand and Indonesia as well as more imagery of Sri Lanka as soon as we can. Pre- and post-event imagery is available at no cost to support response, relief and recovery efforts. All imagery is provided under a Creative Commons 4.0 license.

This imagery can be used by frontline organizations and geospatial community members to map changes on the ground and identify the most severely impacted areas, helping ensure resources are allocated quickly and effectively.

📷 The gallery linked below includes images collected within the past few hours that show flooding and damage across Sri Lanka.

The power of Vantor's 3D living globe in action. Physics-accurate simulated environments generated from SAR imagery.

Aechelon integrated our 3D operational terrain—covering 95% of Earth's landmass, accurate to 3 meters in all dimensions—into Project Orbion to transform ICEYE's all-weather SAR imagery into physics-accurate 3D environments.

Delivered seamlessly into Aechelon's environment via our Tensorglobe platform, our continuously updated spatial foundation enables real-time visualization across heterogeneous sensor sources. This is what software-defined spatial intelligence unlocks: the ability to integrate multi-modal data at mission speed.

Live demo at I/ITSEC 2025 in Orlando this week. Stop by our booth #313 to learn more.

Every autonomous system depends on one thing above anything else – data. The challenge is that most organizations struggle with data that is static, siloed and too slow to shape real decisions. That gap is where the hardest problems live.

At Vantor, you work at the center of a software ecosystem built to fix those problems. Tensorglobe and our broader software suite sit on top of a living flow of satellite tasking decisions made every day – where to collect, when to collect, and how to turn that stream into smarter, connected and actionable spatial intelligence.

Peter Wilczynski, our Chief Product Officer, explains why this matters. When you build on top of an internal platform that already moves at the speed of mission needs, you get a true sandbox for modern machine learning and autonomous system development. You test, iterate and deploy with an organization that uses its own technology at scale, then deliver those capabilities to customers who rely on fast, trusted decisions in defense, enterprise and humanitarian contexts.

If you want to work on problems that were previously unsolvable, this is your place.

We’re hiring. Join us.

We’re seeing an opportunity to leverage software and artificial intelligence to solve a challenge many don’t associate with our industry – building integrated, interoperable and highly accurate combat systems. But space-based capabilities are now the lynchpin for next generation command and control systems.

At the Dubai Airshow, Amal Ezzeddine, VP MEA, will share her insights on the unique role of space in protecting national security. How can spatial intelligence enhance command and control, situational awareness and autonomy across the battlespace?

For a deep dive, explore how Vantor’s Raptor delivers GPS-independent battlefield operations and ensures every human and machine in the battlespace is connected to the same ground truth.

It's time to remove the stovepipes. The volume of spatial data is growing exponentially, and most of it is living in silos. And as Peter Wilczynski explained to GeoAwesome’s Muthu Kumar, these silos have become barriers, not enablers, to using geospatial AI at scale.

Satellites, drones, ground sensors all deliver data to their own systems, stovepiping data to multiple portals, file systems, and processing pipelines. AI models require custom integration for each data source.

Vantor is focused on solving the integration problem. Our Tensorglobe spatial intelligence platform produces an AI-ready living globe—a unified, constantly updated spatial construct built on our foundation that integrates multi-source datasets into spatially aligned, temporally synchronized formats easily accessible to AI systems.
